Consider restructuring the LDML spec

Description

The LDML spec has grown unwieldy over time. See for example

I suggest that we put together a plan for moving to a topic-based approach, where each major topic is in a separate webpage. It would result in many more spec parts, but would allow for each one to be more self-contained.

This could be done incrementally over time. For example, we could create a new Units Part, and move all the text having to do with Units into that Part. To make this easier, we might consider giving up on maintaining old links.

Still in design, so pushing to 42.

Specifically, a lot of what’s now in Part 6 Supplemental, would end up being in a particular topic such as Units.
