Re: [csswg-drafts] [css2] Switching to single-page broke existing URLs (#5330)

Shepherd parses the built specs directly. We don't want to change the Shepherd data because Bikeshed and Respec use it to generate links to CSS2 and those need to be correct.

The build system could get a translation layer so it at least recognizes old CSS2 links and associates them to the appropriate spec sections. The test harness also needs to deal with those changes so the test suite annotations work for CSS2. (It's possible the build translation can simply carry over to the harness, I'd have to check the code.)
