Final note on the adjective sublexica

todo: Rewrite the adj lexica so that the attr variation is kept separate from the otherwise uniform declension.

Adjective declension

GOAL: Keep GAPPUS- and MALLAS- apart, because of the Px(1)V issue, but unify the rest. GAPPUS- and MALLAS- differ in the A and N treatment of Pl Nom Px (only 1st p. for A and all persons for N). Now that MALLASI- is deleted, GAPPUS- and MALLAS- are identical. We check by pointing GAPPUS- to MALLAS-. Look into this. and remove GAPPUS- for MALLAS- eventually.
