Flight price search must be saved and submitted: now Clarified in main policy.

In the "Easy Reference Guide", it had been noted that you must include "Your
fare search (i.e., a screen shot)" when submitting a reimbursement request.
However, the main body of the text didn't explicitly say that.

I've also reintroduced herein a list of fare search sites. We took out the
list initially because some complained that it prescribed a specific search
site. The new wording herein makes it clear that the list is a proper subset
of acceptable search sites. More can be added if folks like.

 ==== Advance Purchase
 Air travel should be booked at least 14 days in advance; any travel booked
 less than 14 days in advance requires written pre-authorization by
 Conservancy.  Flights beyond 365 days in advance also require written
 pre-authorization by Conservancy.
 ==== Low Fare
 Conservancy aims to balance cost savings with convenience and considers
 flights that are within US$100 of the lowest logical fare to be within
 Policy.  Any flights greater than US$100 over the lowest logical fare
 require written pre-authorization by Conservancy. PLCs shall use standard
 air fare search sites for determining the baseline lowest fare.
 Policy.  Any flights greater than US$100 over the lowest logical fare require
 written pre-authorization by Conservancy.  PLCs shall use standard air fare
 search sites for determining the baseline lowest fare.  The PLCs and/or the
 traveler must submit the output (such as a screenshot or printout from the
 browser) of a online fare search as part of documentation in airfare pricing.
 Any widely-recognized airfare search site is acceptable, including sites such
 as http://orbitz.com[Orbitz], http://kayak.com[Kayak] or
 http://hipmunk.com/[Hipmunk].
 ==== Reasonable Flights
 Conservancy asks that Travelers allow for flexibility with respect
 to departure times during a desired day of travel, as well as longer
 trips in order to reduce cost.  However, Conservancy does consider
 flights with two or more connections as unreasonable and does not
 expect Travelers to consider those flight options to be reasonable.
 ==== Excess Baggage
 Should a team member travel on an airline that charges for a single piece
