[Oslc-Automation] Some comments on Actions spec (most from CM perspective)

I took the action to do a quick review for CM needs and look how it may be
spec'd for CM [1]
Comment on section [2]
I'm not sure why the domain specific types are here. Seems like something
that would be in CM spec. In fact, we probably wouldn't define a
oslc:StateTransitionAction but instead just call it oslc:Action. Seems
like the parent class is extraneous. Clients will be looking for
oslc_cm:targetState to determine which action to pick.
What value is there in having this separate type?
CM would simply use profile "POST RDF described by OSLC shapes" [3]
Figured I will just sketch out how it will be used below, which seems to
be a slight modification of what we already had spec'd.
