    docs/misra: add Terms & Definitions section to rules.rst
    
    Add a section for terms and definitions used by MISRA but expressed
    in terms of the C specification.
    
    Add a definition of "switch clause" to the newly-introduced section.
    
    Link the first use of the term "switch clause" in the document to its
    definition.
