Local identifiers in Basic Formal Ontology should match this

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are
6 mappings to external registries for bfo.
| Registry Name | Metaprefix | External Prefix |
|---|---|---|
| BioPortal Prefixes | bioportal |

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE
bfo:0000001 is used to demonstrate the provides available for
bfo. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic
logic beyond string formatting.
