[esip-semantictech] SWEET citation

I'd substitute the github link with a true URI (the target may move away from github) and add some sort of hash. 

Is http://sweetontology.net/ the right IRI? 

Most OBO ontologies will issue a new IRI for each release, such as 
http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/envo/releases/2019-03-14/envo.owl

May be a good idea for SWEET too?

ENVO also ties Zenodo DOIs to its releases :
