[ibis-macro] BIRD127.2 - Table Note Proposed Addition

All:
A Table Note is proposed concerning the general (parameter_name ...)
format description due to approved BIRD132 concerning Table format.
This also addresses the comment in the ANY OTHER BACKGROUND
INFORMATION Section about pending Table rule changes.
A draft of the new rule is:
|** 8) Additional rules apply when <data_format> is Table. The
|** format for <data> describes a set of rows containing data
|** values. Each row has its set of column data values
enclosed
|** by parentheses '(' and ')'. Each row contains the same
|** number of column values. Any or all of these columns may
|** have different data types. For this case the <data_type>
|** argument is a list of a data types, one for each column.
The attachment shows how this relates to the other rules under Notes.
