Re: [alreq] Document styling fixes

[Copying part of this comment from https://github.com/w3c/alreq/pull/152#issuecomment-340725395]

I don't understand why there's a need to change the ids from h_xxx to xxx. As a consequence, all the links to the document from issues and from the text layout index (eg. http://w3c.github.io/typography/#glyphs_diacritics), etc., will now break and need to be fixed. I don't think that's a good thing, and i don't really want to take the time needed to edit the layout index doc just for that unless there's a good reason.

For the figure ids (and ids in general), i recommend that we don't use hyphen-minus. figure_id can be copied to the clipboard with a single doubleclick, but for figure-id you need to select and extend the range (which has to be done any time you want to link to that figure). It's a small thing, but it mounts up.

I recommend the following syntax for referring to Unicode code points, based on having tried lots of alternatives (I think we already agreed on this, but i could be mistaken).
```
<span class="codepoint"><span dir="rtl" lang="ar">ع</span> [<span class="uname">U+0639 ARABIC LETTER AIN</span>]</span>
```

Btw, this can be automatically generated really quickly by going to https://r12a.github.io/pickers/arabic/?text=%20%D8%B9 and clicking on Make Example.
