Clarify that behavior is unspecified for: - Curves where x or y does not designate a variable - Unknown units or incompatible with the plotted variable

Requesting changes, as I am afraid that an overuse of unspecified behavior in the specification will result in the development of non-portable figures. (A quick search for unspecified behavior in the specification revealed only one instance, being how a tool should deal with the entire Documentation annotation, and I don't think that is a good example of what we should be doing here.)
Note that what is much more common is to say that something is an error, implicitly leaving it up to the tools to decide how to deal with that error.

I realize that this isn't really an option as long as the unit is mandatory. However, I believe that having a mandatory Axis.unit, which in turn causes Plot.x and Plot.y to be mandatory, is a problem that needs to be resolved separately, and that we open up a separate PR for how this should be done.

That separate PR is now opened as #2632.
