Use *-LD to denote any JSON-LD derived standard

Context

python-yaml-ld, despite the name, supports multiple LD standards:

  • JSON-LD,
  • YAML-LD,
  • and, potentially in the future, CBOR-LD, TOML-LD, and more.

Thus, it would be unfair to say that expand() can only work on JSON-LD or YAML-LD documents.

Decision

Use *-LD (pronounced: Any-LD) notation to describe all JSON-LD inspired standards/formats.
