[csswg-drafts] Anchors changed in CSS 2 in-place edit in 2016

gsnedders has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts:

== Anchors changed in CSS 2 in-place edit in 2016 ==
914790fe62140c5deb389ac3dfea7b128b860fa8 changed almost all the anchors in CSS 2.

This is problematic because not only does it break all links pointing at https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/ or https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/ (which has pointed to drafts of CSS 2.1 since 2002), but also all links pointing at the supposedly stable https://www.w3.org/TR/2011/REC-CSS2-20110607/ given the 2016 edit was in-place.

The edit was made to avoid duplicate anchors in the non-normative PDF edition, but changed anchors everywhere.

We have two options here:

 * Revert to the pre-2016 anchors, fixing any earlier link but breaking any later link
 * Keep the post-2016 anchors, keeping earlier links broken and later links working
