Re: [web-nfc] local types need some prefix of a kind (#375)

I think we don't need artificial constraints here, and starting exactly with `:` would overlap badly with external records (not long ago there was an idea that the implementation could generate the domain part and apps only specify `:<ext-type-name>`. 

The algorithms will first check on the record types in our spec, so there will be a match (causing an error later, potentially).
Then, if no standard names match, then we check for a valid external type name. If that is not a match, we check for a valid local name. At that point we won't have any overlaps, but we can still include in the validation steps. 
So I see no reason to introduce a new constraint here.
