Fix range on hasOccupation because of semantic inconsistency #49

Description

Regarding hasOccupation range.

lite:hasOccupation a rdf:Property ;
    rdfs:label "occupation"@en ;
    rdfs:comment "The main vocation, job, or employment activity of an individual."@en ;
    owl:equivalentProperty schema:hasOccupation ;
    rdfs:domain lite:Person ;
    rdfs:range rdfs:Literal  

This property would work better with a Class range to be able to use a Controlled Vocabulary. As in Schema and Even madsrdf. As a Literal it shouldn't in it's current state be an equivalentPropery with schema:hasOccupation since mixing a literal range with an object range causes semantic inconsistency where an assertion of equivalency forces it to be both a Literal and an Occupation.

For reference we use this property in kbv as well https://id.kb.se/vocab/hasOccupation

TLDR Suggestion: update range to an Occupation class.
