The purpose of this commit is to address the discrepancy between the specification and wasm-tools discovered in WebAssembly#622. The history here is: * WebAssembly#222 - historical addition of `(interface "name")` as an import/export name. * WebAssembly#263 - moral revert of the previous change where the kind of name was now encoded in the name instead. At this point `Binary.md` mistakenly no longer reflected what wasm-tools parsed. * WebAssembly#536 - addition of more metadata to import/export names with a discriminator byte that overlapped the previous. This commit is is an adjustment to `Binary.md` to fix these discrepancies. Notably `exportname` and `importname` productions, previously absent. The `exportname'` and `importname'` productions are now renamed to `exportname` and `importname`. Additioanlly the production with `versionsuffix'` have been renumbered to `0x02` while an `0x01` production was added which is the exact same as `0x00` (intended for historical compat). A note was updated in the 1.0 binary adjustments to clean this up. Closes WebAssembly#622
