Should we use the UK TNA taxonomy? #21

I extracted the terms used in the TNA taxonomy from the Discovery search form:

https://github.com/ilrt/Beyond2022TeiTemplate/blob/master/taxonomies/tna_discovery.csv

I've included the use of the taxonomy as an example?

     ```
     <textClass>
        <keywords scheme="http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/">
           <term>Ireland</term>
        </keywords>
     </textClass>
     ```

Should we use it? Will Discovery be incorporating Beyond 2022 data in the future? Are these covered in the Library of Congress subject headings.

hi Mike,

I have spoken to the Beyond 2022 team and we would like to recommend using FAST LoC headings.

Remove the TNA taxonomy from the example.

The example has been updated with the taxonomy removed.
