Use the keyword `impls` instead of `is` when writing a `where` constraint that a type variable needs to implement an interface or named constraint.
What was previously (provisionally) written:
```
fn Sort[T:! Container where .ElementType is Ordered](x: T*);
```
will now be written:
```
fn Sort[T:! Container where .ElementType impls Ordered](x: T*);
```

### Greater symbol issue in doc file of comparison_operators
In doc, symbol of greater or greater than equal is write but word is miswritten
so i just fix the word which is miswritten.
Assignment is permitted only as a complete statement, not as a subexpression.
Assignment and compound assignment syntax follow C++ in all other respects.
Pre-increment is provided. Post-increment is not. Uses of all of these operators
are translated into calls to interface members.

Also make minor updates to the skeletal design in
docs/design/name_lookup.md following #2113, as there are no longer any prelude names that are made available to unqualified name lookup by default.
Add `type` to the keyword list in
docs/design/lexical_conventions/words.md, following #2360.
Follow-on to change #2410 which created the `expressions/literals.md` home for literal expressions. Incorporates the decision in #2113 to address a TODO.
Update the design documentation to reflect #2274.
The contents are largely copy-pasted from p2274.md with minor edits, but the "Open questions" section is new.
A few changes:
- Merge content from the `primitive_types.md` design doc into the overall design `README.md` since there was so much overlap and no need for two copies.
- Consistently spell integer types `Carbon.Int(N)` and `Carbon.UInt(N)`, including the `Carbon.` prefix and avoiding `Unsigned(N)`.
- Consistently use a comprehensive set of floating-point types.
- Incorporates #2015 into the design docs.
Add concrete design for interfaces for comparison.
Rename interfaces for arithmetic following current thinking in #1058.
Update rules for mixed-type comparisons for data classes following #710.

Add support for arithmetic operators:
- Unary `+`.
- Binary `+`, `-`, `*`, `/`, `%`.
Specify their behavior for integer and floating-point types. Signed integer overflow is a programming error, handled in various ways. Unsigned integer overflow is specified as wrapping around, intended for hashing / crypto / PRNG use cases.

Support for member access expressions with syntax `container.member`, covering cases such as:
* `object.field`
* `object.method(args)`
* `package.namespace.class.member`
* `object.(interface.member)`
* `object.(class.member)`
... and so on. Includes the rule for template name lookup as decided in #949.

This is intended to be a more iterative edit to the chart:
- Adding `if` and struct literals, since it came up in arithmetic.
- Adding links to address a comment of mine about wanting references
- Rephrasing slightly to reduce the implication that it's only for operators (particularly since I don't think we want to call `if` an operator)
- Shifting operators below because similar

This proposal introduces a conditional operator of the form:
```
if cond then value1 else value2
```

This proposal provides an `as` expression for casting. This supports implicit conversions plus some safe and unsurprising conversions that we do not support implicitly:
* lossy but fully defined conversions to floating-point types
* conversion from `bool` to integer types
* conversion between adaptors and their adapted type, and more generally between compatible types
This facility can be extended by implementing the `As(TargetType)` interface for a type.

Proposal to support a limited set of implicit conversions.
This would generally permit only implicit conversions that are lossless and semantics-preserving. In particular, this proposal allows:
- Conversion from an integer type to a wider integer type of the same signedness, and from an unsigned integer type to a wider signed integer type.
- Conversion from an integer type to a floating-point type that has enough mantissa bits to exactly represent all integers in the source type.
- Conversion from integer literals to integer and floating-point types that can represent them.
- Conversion from floating-point literals to floating-point types that can represent them.
- Conversions required for generics: conversions of values between facet types, and conversions of types between type-of-types, as described in the generics proposals.
- Conversions required for inheritance: derived-to-base conversions for class pointers and class values.
Other conversions, such as lossy conversions between arithmetic types and conversions between bool and other types are not supported.
