Review use of talking about standards within documentation

[corymosiman12]

Make sure everything is consistent. Do we use:

• ASHRAE Standard 211-2018
• Standard 211-2018
• https://bedes.lbl.gov/related-efforts/spc-211-standard-commercial
• ... etc.

Terms searched:

• 211
• ASHRAE
• Standard
• std
• 2018

References to other ASHRAE topics (i.e. 90.1, etc.) were not considered - this is only for references to the ASHRAE Standard 211 specifically. There are only two instances where it is referred to in the docs:

schema/BuildingSync.xsd

Line 975 in c729e77

<xs:documentation>The type of section such as Whole building, Space function data, or other types. * Whole building - describes the whole building, Space function - describes a space function (see ASHRAE standard 211), Component - describes a subspace of a primary premises such as HVAC zone, retails shops in a mall, etc., Tenant - describes a section for a tenant, Virtual - describes a section loosely with potentially overlap with other sections and section types, Other - not well-described by other types.</xs:documentation>

schema/BuildingSync.xsd

Line 5760 in c729e77

<xs:documentation>Energy audit level as defined in ASHRAE Procedures for Commercial Building Energy Audits.</xs:documentation>

My preference would be to refer to it as ASHRAE Standard 211-[year]. Providing a year ensures that irrespective of new versions, the statement made holds firm. Although I realize if we are following BEDES we should probably use SPC 211 Standard for Commercial Building Energy Audits.

@nllong @markborkum opinions?

@corymosiman12 Since it exists, I'd prefer to use BEDES term.
