Generate labels for inflection classes. `data` is a table with the following fields:
* `labels`: The table into which the labels are written.
* `pos`: The singular part of speech, e.g. "noun".
* `stem_classes`: Table of possible stem classes and associated properties. See below.
* `principal_parts`: List of the principal part fields and descriptions. Each list element is a two-element list
consisting of {"FIELD", "DESCRIPTION"} where FIELD is the field in the element in `stem_classes` (e.g. "nom_sg",
"gen_sg", "pl", "sup") containing the detailed description of what this principal part looks like, and DESCRIPTION
is the corresponding English description of the principal part (e.g. "nominative singular").
* `mark_up_spec`: Optional function to add markup to a spec. Takes two arguments, the spec and a flag `nolink`; if the
flag is true, links should not be present in the resulting markup. The default just converts literal text enclosed
in <...> into italics.
* `make_spec_bare`: Optional function to make a spec (stem class or sortkey) free of markup. The default just converts
literal text enclosed in <...> into bare text.
* `addl`: Optional additional text to be displayed in the footer of each category page.

`stem_classes` is a table describing the various stem classes and how to format the category description of each. It is
a table with keys specifying the stem classes and values consisting of an object containing properties of the stem
class. If the stem class contains the word 'GENDER' in it, it expands into labels both for a parent category that
subsumes several genders (obtained by removing the word 'GENDER' and following whitespace) as well as gender-specific
children categories (obtained by replacing the word 'GENDER' with the genders specified in the `possible_genders`
field). The stem class can contain literal text (e.g. suffixes), which will be marked up appropriately (e.g. italicized)
in breadcrumbs and titles. The fields of the property object for a given stem class are as follows:
* `gender`: The description of the gender(s) of the stem class. If preceded by ~, the description is preceded by
"most commonly". This appears in the `additional` field of the label properties. It is not used in gender-specific
children categories; instead the gender of that category is used.
* `possible_genders`: The possible genders this class occurs in. If this is specified, the word 'GENDER' must occur in
the stem class, and gender-specific variants of the stem class (with GENDER replaced by the possible genders) are
handled along with a parent category subsuming all genders.
* `PRINCIPAL_PART`: The ending for the specified principal part. Use <...> to enclose literal Latin-script text (e.g.
suffixes), which will be italicized. There will be one field for each principal part listed in the `principal_parts`
table described above.
* `GENDER_PRINCIPAL_PART`: The ending for the GENDER variant of the specified principal part. If not specified, the
value of `PRINCIPAL_PART` is used.
* `breadcrumb`: The breadcrumb for the category, appearing in the trail of breadcrumbs at the top of the page. If this
stem has gender-specific variants, the breadcrumb specified here is used only for the parent category, while the
gender-specific child categories use the gender as the breadcrumb. If not specified, it defaults to `sortkey`. If that
is also not specified, or if the breadcrumb has the value "+", the stem class (without the word 'GENDER') is used.
(Use "+" when a sortkey is specified but the stem class should be used as the breadcrumb.)
* `parent`: The parent category or categories. If specified, the actual category label is formed by appending the part
of speech (e.g. "nouns"). Defaults to "POS by inflection type" where POS is the part of speech. Note that
gender-specific child categories do not use this, but always have the gender-subsuming parent stem class category as
their parent.
* `sortkey`: The sort key used for sorting this category among its parent's children. Defaults to the stem class
(without the word 'GENDER'). Note that gender-specific child categories do nto use this, but always use the gender
as the sort key.
* `addl`: Optional additional text to be displayed in the footer of the category page.
* `GENDER_addl`: Optional additional text to be displayed in the footer of a gender-specific category page, defaulting
to `addl`. Use the value `false` to cancel out a non-gender-specific value.
