Add method to create a resource.

@benjamingeer I added support for resource creation, update of a resource's metadata, and deletion. Do you want to generate JSON-LD test data as you did for the values?

@benjamingeer I will adapt the specs to the test data, that should be easy.

[benjamingeer]

OK, will do.

Or you can just use string. But we can't lose precision, that would be equivalent to losing data.

I will look at this and try to figure something out. I remember that we had this problem in Scala too before using BigDecimal.

@benjamingeer I think I will create a separate issue to deal with precisions

Looks OK to me!

Let's start thinking about how to automatically generate some of this.
