Add subclass of temporal interval : connected temporal interval

As discussed at meeting. For example, Allen is defined on connected temporal intervals but BFO doesn't currently constrain temporal intervals at all other than that they be two-dimensional

The discussion tended towards adopting the ontological commitment that the temporal projection of a history is a connected region. So no entities whose histories have temporal gaps (i.e. which do not exists for some period) between when they first exist and when they stop existing.

Alan will add "connected temporal interval". Define temporal projection of histories as connected temporal interval but document borderline cases - e.g. Body transplant, rebuilding a historical building (Dresden Cathedral).
Barry will complement my initial draft with the fun stuff :)
