richard: possible work on african languages/scripts

<r12a> * line-breaking tests rewritten to incorporate educational results pages, clear indications of exploratory vs not, and show workings (including externalised js) – tests addressed include:

<r12a> * Line-breaking https://w3c.github.io/i18n-tests/results/line-breaking,

<r12a> *    Non-tailorable line breaking, https://w3c.github.io/i18n-tests/results/line-breaks-glwj,

<r12a> *    word-break, https://w3c.github.io/i18n-tests/results/word-break,

<r12a> *    Japanese & Chinese line breaks, https://w3c.github.io/i18n-tests/results/line-breaks-jazh

<r12a> * the results pages for the above were all adapted to be more readable, to better support educational and gap analysis work

richard: rewrote the line breaking tests
... seems like florian is writing i18n-related tests for css
... trying to figure out line breaking
... getting over to platform tests
... improved the results pages
... putting in more explanatory text
... so someone use them for pedagogical reasons
... can also use as a source for line breaking

One-and-a-half new articles about HTTP/meta language info

... there was a recent complaint
... took article and rewrote it

<r12a> http://w3c.github.io/i18n-drafts/questions/qa-http-and-lang-TEST.en

... covered meta element quickly
... only lightweight thing was "links for futher info"
