TDMRep; spec updated, final report

Dear TDMRep participants, 

I have taken the freedom to apply a small evolution to the specification, in the ODRL Policy section : we were using either a "permission" or an "obligation" property to express a requirement, depending the case:
- Expressing the duty to contact the rightsholder before getting a permission -> obligation
- Expressing the duty to compensate financially the rightsholder  -> permission- Expressing a constraint on the type of usage -> permission

Where in fact a permission in all cases makes sense and further simplifies the ODRL profile.
You'll see how the three corresponding examples are similar now:

https://w3c.github.io/tdm-reservation-protocol/spec/#example-11 
https://w3c.github.io/tdm-reservation-protocol/spec/#example-12 
https://w3c.github.io/tdm-reservation-protocol/spec/#example-13 

The exact commit is: 
https://github.com/w3c/tdm-reservation-protocol/commit/4cb03348f69dac5adb9690f0dfff0a0b9f090b98   

I hope this does not impact the prototypes that have been developed so far. I'm pretty sure it can simplify client processing. 
Feedback welcome. If you see a real issue there, we can change back to the previous state before making the spec our "final report". 

Best regards
Laurent Le Meur
