[Lexicog] Linnaean classifications in MDF

[fieldworks_support at SIL.ORG]

The standard MDF field for a scientific name is \sc.

>From the "MDFields" database:

\sc  scientific name
Providing a scientific name for a lexeme can be very useful if accurate.
The gloss "a type of
tree" is nearly worthless (but often the best we can do at the time).
Having the scientific name
allows us to eventually find the appropriate English gloss for such a
species. Getting the
scientific name requires access to high quality books (color pictures
help).

The data given is automatically underlined and italicized by MDF; no
formatting is needed.
