Re: audiobook options in objects

I've added Proposal 5 along these lines (maybe time to start narrowing these down but...)

Two new types to offer some flexibility in specifying other non-music recordings such as radio plays or podcasts. Draws on terminology used in existing TVEpisode type

Thing > CreativeWork > NonMusicRecording

Thing > CreativeWork > NonMusicRecording > Audiobook

New properties for NonMusicRecording type

	• performer -- expected type: Person
	• producer -- expected type: Person
	• musicBy -- expected type: MusicGroup or Person
	• productionCompany -- expected type: Organization
New properties for Audiobook type

	• readBy -- expected type: Person
	• isbn
