Some reorganization and renaming at the discipline level

All concept suggestions as of mid-2022 have been reviewed, and those accepted have been added to this release.

This release for the first time deprecates a discipline: "General Physics". Most of the concepts in active use there relate to quantum physics, and have been moved to the "Quantum Information Science & Technology" (previously "Quantum Information") discipline. Most of the remaining general concepts were moved to "Interdisciplinary Physics" or other relevant areas of PhySH. "Classical field theory" and "Electromagnetism" were decided to be duplicative and have been deprecated in favor of "Classical electromagnetism" (in the facet "Theoretical & Computational Techniques").

Note that "Statistical Physics" has been renamed "Statistical Physics & Thermodynamics" to more fully capture the scope.

The discipline "Quantum Information Science & Technology" has an adjusted top-level hierarchy resulting from the merger with concepts from "General Physics"/"Quantum Theory".
