Summary:
#new-4	add optional IRI/URI "matching-pattern-string" to meta-data section of  an EPR Resolution Service's EPR

Tracker:	Naming Comments by Frank	

Description: As we can have many different IRI/URI schema for resolvable end point identifiers with many different EPR Resolution
Service implementations that only know how to deal with certain IRI/URI schema. In order for a client to know what resolution
service instance to use for the EPI that it has, a matching-pattern can be associated with a resolution service instance that the
client can use to match the EPI. Such a matching-pattern-string could be added the meta-data section of  an EPR Resolution Service's
EPR
