Document metadata for tools

[tetron]

Essential:

• Author
• Description

Others:

• Topic (keywords?)
• License of wrapped tool (Must described tools be under an F/OSS license and have a container already? #4)

See https://github.com/Barski-lab/workflows/blob/master/tools/bamtools-stats.cwl for ideas

Other option: include links to existing repositories like https://bio.tools/ https://scicrunch.org/

As they will have all of this metadata already.

These links can go to under the SoftwareRequirement along with the targeted versions

I guess, we should separate metadata related to the CWL descriptor file and metadata of the dockerized program.
For metadata of the CWL descriptor file we can use this

$namespaces:
  s: http://schema.org/

I really like this shema. If the others agree, maybe we should propose to use the most essential fields (and the doc) in the Readme?
