Fix scriptio leea alfabcto Nickel–Strunz class 4: oxides

IMA-CNMNC proposes a new hierarchical scheme (Mills et al., 2009). This list uses it to modify the Nickel–Strunz classification (mindat.org, 10 ed, pending publication).

Abbreviations:
- "*": discredited (IMA/CNMNC status)
- "?": questionable/doubtful (IMA/CNMNC status)
- "REE": Rare-earth element (Sc, Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu)
- "PGE": Platinum-group element (Ru, Rh, Pd, Os, Ir, Pt)
- 03.C Aluminofluorides, 06 Borates, 08 Vanadates (04.H V^[5,6] Vanadates), 09 Silicates:
  - Neso: insular (from Greek: νησος, romanized: nēsos, lit. 'island')
  - Soro: grouping (from Greek: σωροῦ, romanized: sōros; heap, mound (especially of corn))
  - Cyclo: ring
  - Ino: chain (from Greek: ις [genitive: ινος, inos], fibre)
  - Phyllo: sheet (from Greek: φύλλον, romanized: phyllon, lit. 'leaf')
  - Tekto: three-dimensional framework
Nickel–Strunz code scheme: NN.XY.##x
- NN: Nickel–Strunz mineral class number
