openregs consolidate

Apply an amending act to a base Expression and write the point-in-time text.

Apply an amending act’s operations to the Expression in , producing a new Expression of the same Work addressed at the amendment’s effective date - the date the amending act’s own Expression IRI carries. The result is written into the same canon, and the Expression it supersedes has its valid_to set to the day before. Where the regulator publishes its own consolidated text (—publisher-text), every unit that agrees with it is marked publisher_verified; everything else is computed, with a confidence.
