Subject: Minor copyediting

This commit does some minor copyediting, especially of the
introduction to the supplement. There's no point complaining to
the reader about the word limit of the journal: s/he is not
interested in that. This is not the right place for discussing
journal policy. The need for summarising content and focussing on
key elements of a cohesive argument is fundamental in a world of
information overload. A&A/MNRAS/ApJ/PRD letters are generally
much worse than normal articles in terms of reproducibility
because they have to omit so many details that the reader has
to read the full articles to really know what is done. But the
reality is that letters get read a lot, because they're short
and snappy.

 %% A short appendix describing this file.
 \begin{abstract}
-  This supplement contains appendices to accompany the body of the published paper on CiSE (pre-print published on \href{https://arxiv.org/abs/\projectarxivid}{\texttt{arXiv:\projectarxivid}} or \href{https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.\projectzenodoid}{\texttt{zenodo.\projectzenodoid}}).
-  In the paper's main body we discussed criteria for longevity and introduced a proof of concept that implements them called Maneage (\emph{Man}aging data lin\emph{eage}).
-  However, due to the journal word-count limit we could not include a thorough literature review to emphasis on all the valuable lessons learnt from previous methods or compare them (and their lower-level tools) in sufficient detail to the criteria or the proof-of-concept presented in this work.
-  Appendix \ref{appendix:existingtools} reviews the low-level tools that used by many (reproducible) workflow solutions (including our proof of concept).
-  Appendix \ref{appendix:existingsolutions} reviews many solutions that attept(ed) reproducible management of workflows (including solutions that have been abandonded, discontinued, or unavailable any more).
-  To highlight the evolving landscape and its effects on longevity, Appendix \ref{appendix:existingsolutions}  discusses them in historical order.
-  Finally, in Appendix \ref{appendix:software} an automatically generated, and exaustive, list of software used to build this project is included with their versions.
-  This supplement was built over project commit \projectversion.
