Changes for language spec update? Specified that algorithm for generating control-plane names for keys is optional #450

Closed jafingerhut closed 5 months ago

This issue is related to the following change made from v1.2.3 to v1.2.4 of the P4_16 language specification:

Note: The new added part in version 1.2.4 is the sentence "The spec suggests, but does not mandate, the following algorithm for generating names for some kinds of key expressions", and the table that follows that sentence.

(see https://p4.org/p4-spec/docs/P4-16-v1.2.4.html#sec-summary-of-changes-made-in-version-124 for the item in context of the full list of changes, but there are separate Github issues for each that might impact the P4Runtime API specification).

2023-Sep-08: Decision made that no P4Runtime spec changes needed, so remove this item from bullet list in spec.
