Patent Review Draft → Patent Review Snapshot

https://github.com/w3c/patent-policy/pull/2

What the Process docs calls Candidate Recommendation _Snapshots_ are what the
Patent Policy calls Patent Policy _Drafts_. But meanwhile, the Process doc also
has Candidate Recommendation _Drafts_, which are _not_ Patent Review _Drafts_.

So there’s a confusing collision/disparity between the two docs in the oddly
different ways in which _“Draft”_ is used.

And regardless, “Patent Review Snapshot” is anyway to begin with an objectively
better term for referring to what these things really are — which is, a static
snapshot of the state a spec and its defined features at a particular point in
time. “Draft” doesn’t capture that sense nearly as well.
