Summary	0001571: minor improvement to the locale precedence order
Description	The description of how a locale category is set (based on LC_ALL, LC_*, LANG, etc.) already describes in line 5497-5498, that "the first condition met below determines the value:". Accordingly none of the four steps beginning at line 5499 except for the last say that the current step is only for the case the the previous didn't apply. Likewise, in step 4 (line 5507) it makes no sense but just complicates understanding to describe "If the LANG environment variable is not set or is set to the empty string", which is already clear, given that step 3 didn't apply.
Desired Action	Change line 5507-5508 from: 4. If the LANG environment variable is not set or is set to the empty string, the implementation-defined default locale shall be used. to: 4. Otherwise, the implementation-defined default locale shall be used.
