Examples should be moved away from SAREF-core

Affects: SAREF

Situation: The SAREF ontology contains many examples of devices like WashingMachine However, these instances and their annotation are not present in the SAREF TS. There is no evidence of usage of these concepts in other SAREF extensions

Proposal: Move the examples to additional resources/documentation and not in the ontology. Only keep Actuator Appliance Sensor Meter, keep HVAC (maybe remove it in the future, add in the comment that there is a link with saref4bldg). Remove LightingDevice, remove MicroRenewable, remove Multimedia but create an example about Multimedia. remove Network.

Status: agreed during SmartM2M-2nd RG Meeting about 2 NWIs SAREFv3 and SAREF Com Framework V2 2019-05-06
