The version of `flake8` was too old to support with Python 3.12 -- there
is new F-string support that caused false positives sadly. The updated
version has fixes for all of these.
This in turn updates codespell which has picked up several new fixes
that actually fire in our code, so also fix everything. While we don't
do more in-depth updates to old proposals, similar to simply fixing
broken links, fixing automatically detected typos seems scalable and
fine.

Remove a confusing mention of a specific version of C++ (C++17) from the
interoperability goals.
Expand the content of the goals to make it clear that we have a moving and
ongoing target of C++ as it continues to evolve. Also emphasize that we will
prioritize among the different features during Carbon's development based on how
they impact the overall project.
However, this intends to preserve the fact that there may exist long-tail or
corner-case features in C++ that never end up with high quality or exhaustive
support in our interop story simply because their impact on Carbon users is
sufficiently small that it doesn't justify the cost.
Fixes#1587
This takes #175 and publishes it as interop goals. I've made a few small editorial changes, but the main addition is the "Offer equivalent support for languages other than C++" non-goal which I thought may be useful (in particular, it can be used to clarify why this directory is "interoperability" and not "interoperability_cpp").
Adopts new copyright and markdown toc checks.
The new toc check generates the toc header, so that's why all the md files changed (this had felt better to me for the long-term, more auto-generated content)

This proposal should be considered a starting point of the language design. It's not intended to be final; language details may change. This is intended to offer a reasonable starting point for:
- Example code.
- Conceptualizing Carbon at a high level.
- Reasonable, but not necessarily final, approaches to features in README.md.
- If any idea is obviously bad, we can clean it up here.
This proposal is not intended to achieve:
- A whole language design.
- This is way too much work for a single proposal; this is a skeletal framework only.
- As we work on feature-specific designs, we may decide to use other approaches. That's fine: we only need somewhere to start.
- The summaries in README.md may be expected to change over time.
- Feature-specific files aren't intended to be well-written or comprehensive. They are a quick jot of prior thoughts.
- We want to avoid getting stuck on language details that we should consider
more carefully regardless. If you're passionate about a feature, please feel
free to start a new proposal for it.
- Each and every aspect of the suggested overview should be subject to careful
examination and justification before it becomes a settled plan of record.
Chandler started this with https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/22. I've taken it over with the following changes:
- More of a directory hierarchy.
- Trying to thin out the main file (now README.md) to lighter summaries of features.
- Details/rationale/alternatives should be in feature-specific files.
- Draft files are linked as references where added.
For an example of how we may proceed with feature-specific designs, see https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/80. In this structure:
- docs/design/README.md mentions interoperability, with a light overview.
- The light overview is not yet in https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/80.
- docs/design/interoperability/README.md goes into more depth on interoperability, covering key points of the approach.
- Individual files in docs/design/interoperability/* go into more depth on interoperability.
Simple designs may not have a subdirectory. All current feature-specific designs do not -- they may be moved later.
