[oslc-core] Draft: UI Preview with JSON-LD

[Samuel Padgett]

I've updated the UI Preview V3 draft [1] to use JSON-LD for the Compact
resource instead of the pseudo-RDF/XML format we had before. The thinking
is UI previews are usually displayed in a browser, and JSON is easier to
handle there. Comments and feedback welcome.

A few things to note:

- The current draft removes the 2.0 XML format entirely, although it does
say providers may continue to support it for backwards compatibility.
- It also requires the compacted document form [2] of JSON-LD so that the
document is easy to parse from the browser. Alternatives are allowing any
valid JSON-LD or just using a simple, plain JSON format instead.
