SSN/SOSA update - Moving to FPWD

Colleagues -

As discussed in the telecon just ended, the goal is for the '2023 Edition' of the SSN Ontology to be issued as a First Public Working Draft ASAP. In order to do this, we need to process at least four PRs.

Two are 'trivial' and just need a second positive review in order to merge

- External request - rename hasSampledFeature https://github.com/w3c/sdw-sosa-ssn/pull/338
- Bugfix - domainIncludes/rangeIncludes switched on madeSamplingHasResult https://github.com/w3c/sdw-sosa-ssn/pull/345

One is primarily about polishing the text and diagrams a bit before a public release

- Editorial work ahead of FPWD https://github.com/w3c/sdw-sosa-ssn/pull/341
- preview at https://raw.githack.com/w3c/sdw-sosa-ssn/337-update-front-matter/ssn/index.html

The final one is the work that RobW is doing to capture the simplified System Capabilities model developed in collaboration with Maxime and RobA

- Simplified System Capabilities https://github.com/w3c/sdw-sosa-ssn/pull/334

- preview at https://raw.githack.com/w3c/sdw-sosa-ssn/ssn-systems/ssn/index.html#System-capabilities

There is some other work on the table but these are the priorities ahead of FPWD.

The goal is to go to FPWD in 2-4 weeks, so the time to do the necessary reviews is NOW!

Thanks all.

Cheers - Simon
