[tei-council] @calendar and @datingMethod

[Lou Burnard]

I've had a quick look and think this looks good, though I think it might 
make clearer that the custom-xxx attributes provide a (non-standard) 
normalized form, perhaps by complementing same with the standard 
normalised equivalent.

In the meantime I've taken on myself the other action suggested by the 
ticket -- a sweep through the <att> elements in P5 to see if there are 
any other rogues. I found about twenty <att> elements which don't 
correspond with  a TEI:attDef/@ident : the vast majority are simple 
cases where a @scheme attribute has been omitted, or where the attribute 
name has been translated into Spanish for some reason. I'll fix them up 
shortly.
