[data-shapes] `IMPORTS` (#780)

afs has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/data-shapes:

== `IMPORTS` ==
`IMPORTS <url>`  

`<url>` is the locations of a self contained SHACL Rules file in SRL or RDF-syntax.

Imported `PREFIXES` do not continue after the rules of `url` have been processed for import. Nor does `BASE` or `VERSION`.

While managing prefixes as a share common set of declarations might be useful, it goes against the idea of the imported rule set being self-contained. If prefixes do continue after processing, they can corrupt the rules that follow.
