Proposal to close ISSUE-26 based on sh:hasShape

ISSUE-26 [1] is about whether extensions such as SPARQL can invoke the 
high-level language. I believe this needs to be answered individually 
for each extension language. For SPARQL, my proposal to resolve this is 
as currently drafted, by relying on the sh:hasShape function:

     http://w3c.github.io/data-shapes/shacl-ref/#hasShape

I would be OK with a solution that makes this function *optional* if we 
find work-arounds to all places where it is currently used. But I 
believe this capability is generally useful and greatly extends what 
users can achieve with SHACL.
