Removed definition of JSON-LD processors from the Conformance section

Other sections still mention JSON-LD processors, either to describe
how JSON-LD documents are processed or to put constraints on JSON-LD
processors through normative statements. Descriptive text would need
to link to the proper definition of JSON-LD processor in the API doc.
Normative statements that apply to JSON-LD processors need to be
dropped. All of this is being covered by issue #184.

 <p>A <tdef>JSON-LD document</tdef> is a JSON document that expresses <tref>Linked Data</tref> in JSON. A JSON-LD document complies with this specification if it follows the normative statements for documents defined in sections <a href="#referencing-contexts-from-json-documents"></a> and <a href="#json-ld-grammar"></a>. For convenience, normative statements for documents are often phrased as statements on the properties of the document.</p>
 
-<p>A <tdef>JSON-LD processor</tdef> parses a <tref>JSON-LD document</tref> and generates the corresponding <tref>JSON-LD graph</tref> (mapping terms to IRIs and coercing values). A JSON-LD processor complies with this specification if it follows the normative statements for processors. Statements that are applicable to a JSON-LD processor are identified in this document by use of the term "JSON-LD processor" in the singular or plural.</p>
