Make it explicit that the DISTANCE<limit idiom should be used for cone-search-like constraints as well as sky crossmatch-like constraints.

This addresses the third point from the Ops IG RFC comments, see https://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/ADQL21RFC#Operations%20Interest%20Group

I am ok with all these modifications. I just added one comment, but clearly not a critical one. Feel free to merge, with or without taking into account my comment.

ADQL.tex Outdated
This section therefore recommends a preferred form of ADQL
to use for sky crossmatching and the related cone search operation,
namely to impose an upper limit on one of the two forms of the
DISTANCE operator.

I would have rather said DISTANCE function instead of DISTANCE operator.

Use term "function" rather than "operator" for DISTANCE;
add "sky" in section title; use "<=" as well as "<" in examples.
