A draft of a replacement and extension to personal names based on FamilySearch/GEDCOM#473

I'm submitting this PR just to be hopefully helpful, and because PRs seem to be one of the easier ways for people to comment on and change parts of a document in github. I think this is a reasonable possiblity for moving forward, but am not trying to suggest that it is in any way perfect. Changes or even wholesale replacement with a different proposal are welcome. |

I miss the fact you can combine TYPE's. Don't see a description for that. To denote a sequence TYPE could maybe have PARTFIRST, PARTLAST, PART1, PART2, PART3, PART4 etc. CON: The TYPE list would be longer. |
This draft was created based on conversation with members of the names working group in fisharebest/gedcom-name#27 and #473. The text is mostly new, though, and may have failed to capture some elements of those conversations. A separate v7.1 draft is anticipated once conversation on this draft stabilizes.
