Small caps in chapter headings

This example demonstrates three different types of small caps commonly encountered at the beginning of a chapter.

We always mark mixed-small-caps, where both large and small capitals appear on the same line.

We do not mark all uppercase text in headings, where all the characters are the same height, even when the letters look like all-lowercase small caps.

When the first words in a chapter appear in small caps, we change them to normal mixed-case and do not mark them.

Headings are wrappable

Headings are wrappable unless you use no-wrap or add blank lines. Here, the chapter ID, chapter title, and sub-heading are all separated by blank lines, but since the sub-heading is clearly wrappable, it wasn't placed in no-wraps.
