SHACL Shapes

Base SHACL shapes for the Linked.Archi core ontology. These shapes apply to all metamodels that extend the core. Metamodel-specific shapes (e.g., ArchiMate, C4, Backstage) import this file and add type-specific constraints. Label requirements are deliberately not here. arch:Element means "a node in a model", and several notations have nodes that are legitimately unnamed — BPMN gateways and events, ArchiMate junctions — so each metamodel states its own naming rule in its own shapes. See the labelling contract in this file and DD-24.
