[dxwg] Reduce profile list network traffic burden by making optional unless explicitly asked for (#1152)

rob-metalinkage has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/dxwg:

== Reduce profile list network traffic burden by making optional unless explicitly asked for ==
The "cartesian product"  form of profile listing can become quite onerous.

We should consider making it a "MAY" to return this  for GET requests - and to ensure the mechanism is actually supported making it mandatory only if a specific named profile is asked for - so we'd need to mint that id.

(we could make it HEAD specific - but that violates HEAD=GET without body expectation..)
