Sort the options so that those defined in POSIX are listed first,
then followed by those defined in ISO/IEC TR 14652 in the order
of common convention in many widely used glibc locales.
Actual descriptions are unchanged.

The timezone of LC_TIME is not in POSIX, only 6 (out of ~300)
glibc locales define it, the glibc code comment below from
glibc.git/programs/ld-time.c seems to suggest it's not a good
idea, and there's been a proposal in upstream [1] to remove the
existing timezone definitions from glibc locales so I think
it's actually better to leave this one undocumented:
/* XXX We don't perform any tests on the timezone value since this is
simply useless, stupid $&$!@... */

Move the remaining LC_COLLATE FIXMEs together while at it.

The relationship between the locale time format syntax
and strftime() cannot be considered as obvious.

It's probably a good idea to refer to locale(7) so that a reader
can check what a category is about before describing them in
detail.

A long time ago in glibc, repertoire maps were used (but they
were removed already in 2000), those mapping files were named
as mnemonics, so "mnemonic" is a term that would almost
certainly come up if somebody studies glibc side (perhaps even
the related standards like ISO 9945 [which I don't have access
to]) so I thought it's worth to mention to term in the man page
to make sure we're talking about the same thing, otherwise
someone might wonder is that something different or not.
IOW, symbolic names and mnemonics are often used interchangeably,
let's mention the other often used term in the page, too.

Both plain numbers and Unicode code points are used in glibc locales but checking the code reveals that country_isbn is handled like the rest of its category expect for country_num which was clarified earlier.

Fix Ubuntu bug #1110781:

This bug have been partially resolved by commit
aa87a3f3f8 and tagged
fixed-upstream by Simon Paillard for Debian bug #699387.
The Ubuntu bug #1110781 report is more comprehensive and passing
I saw that RES_SNGLKUPREOP was missed.
