Subject: [Cbor] New control operators for CDDL

I have submitted draft-bormann-cbor-cddl-control-00 with proposals for five new control operators:

* .cat and .plus for very basic computed literals (all that we seem to need right now)
* .abnf and .abnfb for ABNF in CDDL
* .feature for keeping track of extension point usage by an instance in validation (as already used in recent work on SDF).

Title:		Additional Control Operators for CDDL

I have also updated draft-bormann-cbor-cddl-freezer to remove those ideas from the freezer that are now represented in these five new controls.

.feature is provisionally implemented in the CDDL tool version 0.8.11; the other four are waiting for the next version of the CDDL tool.

Maybe we can talk about these on Wednesday.
