FYI: BIDS DatasetType "study" #281

Description

@yarikoptic

Very recently we finished formalizing the fact that BIDS standard directories layout could cover an entire study and not just BIDS raw. See https://bids-specification.readthedocs.io/en/latest/common-principles.html#study-dataset which is just a slight tune up from what was there before. And the main advantage here is to formalize how to organize not just a bids raw, but potentially all other (derivatives etc) related datasets. Moreover within a study there could even be multiple BIDS raw datasets happen they are sufficiently distinct (separate behavior and neuroimaging) with some "derivative" "raw" one which is a composition (git merge) of multiple BIDS raw.

Under assumption that all sourcedata is used just for generation of a single BIDS raw dataset, currently described by BIDSCoin workflow is already very nice in placing it under sourcedata/ of the target BIDS raw dataset, and likely we do not need to "move it" to the study level dataset which would contain that BIDS raw.

But I wanted to mention that you might want to recommend people to establish top level study BIDS dataset under which to place the BIDSCoin converted one (under sourcedata/raw as BIDS RECOMMENDS). .... I will finish later need to go...
