There are two rules about extinct taxa that can be easily checked automatically:

  1. If a taxon is extinct, all its descendants are extinct as well.
  2. If all the descendants of a taxon are extinct, the taxon is extinct as well.

We should raise a new EXTINCT_INCONSISTENT issue flag on the taxa breaking these rules.

See CatalogueOfLife/data#696
