Refs #66.

Moves §4.10 and §6 of SPECIFICATION.md into the language and deletes them there, with the empty heading of section 4 they leave behind. The read-write law stood under "Reads and writes" on BELOCH.md already; the paragraph now carries the asymmetry the law encodes and points at ADR 0011 in place of the section. Exactness is a section of its own on BELOCH.md: every geometric decision is exact, the representation of numbers is free, the constructions bound the degree, and the output is the one inexact step. The pointers to §6 on the overview and the constructions page name the section. What §4.10 said about @ being retired and about landmark constructions as an interim is history and is not carried over.
