Issue: Class: Standard Property: Title should be Mandatory

• https://doi-do.github.io/dcat-us/#properties-for-standard
• https://doi-do.github.io/dcat-us/#standard-title
• Current documentation for the Class: Standard Property: Title has the "Requirement Level" as "Recommended" https://doi-do.github.io/dcat-us/#standard-title. I feel that the Requirement Level should be raised to "Mandatory." While the Class: Standard is optional, when it is used, it is logical to insist that the Standard must be identified in some way. The easiest for people is to provide a text title.

Recommended change(s): Raise Class: Standard Property: Title Requirement Level to "Mandatory." Update Documentation as needed.
