What is production data, where does it come from, why does this repo exist?

• Production data means what you get from downloads at https://cldr.unicode.org/index/downloads
• The inheritance marker(↑↑↑) is in the source git repo. It is used to indicate that the data for a locale comes from its parent locale or language. The inheritance markers are replaced by the actual values in the production data.
• The tool GenerateProductionData can generate production data (hence the name) from the source repo.
• We use this cldr-staging repo to contain a copy of the production data.
