Slightly updated CP for 124, was: Change proposal for ISSUE-124, was: ISSUE-124 (rel-limits): Chairs Solicit Proposals

SUMMARY

There's no reason to disallow noreferrer and nofollow on <link>.

RATIONALE

It's an unnecessary restriction.

DETAILS

Change the table in [1] to say "effect on link: annotation".

Change the introductions in [2] and [3] to allow the relation on <link> 
as well.

IMPACT

1. Positive Effects

Less special-casing; nofollow would behave the same on all elements.

2. Negative Effects

None.

3. Conformance Classes Changes

None.

4. Risks

None.
