Changes spec to the standardised Client Hints header format.

This was already changed in Chrome 97 which is the only implementation.

I'm not sure if the spec's name itself should also be changed? And if that requires any sort of W3C input to do this and/or a repo rename? Do you know @yoavweiss ? So for now I've only done' the Header field name.

Changing the repo name doesn't seem that useful. Or the spec, since there's a JS API as well.

Ah true. I'm gonna add an update to the Abstract in a separate PR:

This document defines a HTTP Client Hint header to surface device capability for memory i.e. device RAM, in order to enable web apps to customize content depending on device memory constraints.

As that's quite confusing!
