add stats field to sid file description #141

Closed mcr closed 1 year ago

I think that this adds a status: field to the sid file for each entry. It has default value "stable", and one enumerated value, "subject_to_review", which is worth bikeshedding.

I wonder if we are missing an opportunity to get some better tracking/historical data here. Instead of an enumerated, we could have a string. The special string "unstable" would mean what we need it to here. We might also reserve "obsolete" ("obsoleted"?) But, otherwise, the string would indicate when/how the SID was allocated, so either a YANG version (YYYY-MM-DD) would go in, or perhaps an RFC#, but I think using RFCXXXX would be too confusing to non-IETF users, and require .sid file manipulations at AUTH48, which would be annoying.
