Added function to load the emmo (the ontology) directly

[francescalb]

Closes #209.

We could call it get_emmo instead.

This is quite nice.
My comments are mainly for some typing tricks and such, not really the content.

Another thing I was thinking though was whether it should be named in capitals, where possible, instead of the lower case letters?

We could call it get_emmo instead.

Not a bad idea, it's still a bit confusing I think.
Mainly I was thinking to have something like:

from emmopy import EMMO

Which would mean we could simply create an EMMO variable in the __init__.py file, or like you've done here, in a separate file (which is a bit nicer), and then import it in __init__.py. The trouble being that one will always instantiate the EMMO ontology then when importing anything from emmopy. Unless it's done with some lazy loading tricks.

What I'm trying to say is, it might be best to rename to get_emmo() and then let users use this to create their own EMMO variables, like:

from emmopy import get_emmo

EMMO = get_emmo(inferred=False)
EMMO_inferred = get_emmo()

I think get_emmo is better, since using from emmopy import EMMO would increase the risk of overwriting with EMMO = EMMO() later.

Merge at will if/when tests pass.
