Ethnicity coding

[chrismainey]

In the underlying data, how should we code the ethnicity: according to census or NHS?

@richardi7 has uploaded a translation table in to the repo in /data/ folder, and I've added to the SQL Server environment too.

Currently if patient BSOL resident, ethnicity comes from the spine. If not, it comes hierarchically, based on data quality, from other sources.

To lowest common denominator as NHS has not mandate 20 categories we have to stick with 16 NHS ones.
