How to specify alternative forge and mirrors? #293

Description

@adulau

Nowadays, it is increasingly difficult to identify the canonical forge and the available mirrors for an open source project.

How should this be expressed in publiccode.yml? In particular, is there a recommended way to distinguish between the authoritative repository and mirrors (backup)?

For example, we operate a ForgeJo instance that mirrors GitHub repositories we actively maintain. Can this relationship (canonical repository vs. mirror) be clearly and unambiguously expressed in the YAML file?
