This PR removes two release products that are completely redundant since they are identical to another release product:

  • basic.owl: exactly identical to uberon-basic.owl except that is has a different ontology IRI;
  • metazoan-view.owl: exactly identical to basic.owl (and therefore to uberon-basic.owl).

There’s no need to waste time building those products and waste space hosting them. If some some pipelines out there are dependent on those files, they should be updated to use uberon-basic.owl instead. And if these are old pipelines that for some reason can’t be updated, then we should just have one more redirection in Uberon’s PURL configuration.

Download statistics for the Uberon releases suggest the metazoan-view.owl file at least is never downloaded by anyone.

closes #3013

The custom release product 'basic.owl' is, by construction, exactly the
same as the standard product 'uberon-basic.owl' and is, therefore,
pointless and be removed.
Update all goals that depend on the basic.owl product to make them
depend on the uberon-basic.owl (which is the same thing) instead.
What we pretend to be a 'metazoan subset' is actually uberon-basic, so
let's not waste time and disk space creating a copy for nothing.

If people need a metazoan-view.owl file, we can add a PURL redirection
to uberon-basic.owl.
