As discussed in CL 401434 there are substantial misuses of these in the
wild, and they are a potential source of unsafety even for code that
does not use them directly.
We should either keep them as-is and document when/how they can be used
safely, or deprecate them so that uses will eventually die out.
After some discussion, it was decided to deprecate them outright.
Since the docs already mentioned that they may be unstable across
releases, it should be possible to get rid of them completely later on.

The metasyntax used in the spec is exactly the Wirth Syntax
Notation (WSN), which eventually influenced EBNF. Add a link
but keep mentioning EBNF which is likely more commonly known.
Use the original terms in the productions. Specifically, use
the words "Term" and "Factor" rather than "Alternative" and
"Term".
The terminology cleanup also resolves an inconsistency in the
subsequent prose which is referring to the correct "terms" now.
While at it, add a production for the entire Syntax itself,
matching the original WSN definition.
Also, replace the two uses of "grammar" with "syntax" for
consistency ("syntax" is the prevalent term used throughout
the spec).
