[R6RS] naming convention for procedures

I notice that the "Entry format" section (3.1) does not list "proc" or
"procedure" as a naming convention which implies a type restriction.
I'm thinking it should.
Currently, both "proc" and "procedure" are used for this purpose in
different places - "procedure" most notably in arithmetic and hash
tables. R5RS used "proc" for e.g. map and for-each (and similarly
didn't mention it in the "Entry format" section.
I'm going with "proc" for the stuff I'm responsible for, until I hear
otherwise.
