Re: Modules split

"immersive-ar" isn't going away, its definition is just moving from the
core spec to a separate AR module which adds it back.

FWIW, I think it would be nice if there were a way to generate a combined
spec that includes major modules for easier reference in one place, as
opposed to the GL extension approach of core plus incremental patches, but
that's a usability/tooling issue separate from the modularization itself.
