Older versions of GDB (before version 10.1) don't work with the
DWARF v5 debugging format the LLVM uses. The error message
which GDB shows when this happens is a bit misleading though.
Provide documentation about how to deal with that error message.
There's an extra curly brace per @pacion, and a missing space in print was also reported to us on other forums.

Fix `-` -> `+` in `Distance`. Typo noticed by gingerBill in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_8lV0nwsc4 .
Also update factory function names `Create` -> `Make`, to reflect latest thinking.
This follows #1274 , #1325 , #1328 , #1336 , and #1347 . This has miscellaneous changes to the design overview without a particular focus.
Also adds some missing keywords to our list of keywords.

This is a proposal to make the Carbon experiment public.
We have not yet hit many of the originally suggested criteria for going
public. However, this proposal suggests that increasingly there is more
value to moving public sooner rather than waiting to hit these criteria.
We are increasingly unable to substantially learn more about the broader
interest in Carbon without it being public and we increasingly see value
in working with the industry to build and shape the language.
Given this, the proposal removes the old plan-of-record and suggests
a concrete set of steps to make the experiment public in the immediate
future.
This is not a change that we can make lightly to the project, and so we
worked to check with as many folks as we could first and all three
leads were unanimous to move forward here.
Note that this proposal was originally discussed in PR #1315.

This proposal establishes a plan for moving away from the embedded copy
of LLVM and instead downloading it with Bazel.
The goal is that after this lands, we will do a history-rewrite to
cleanup the repository. There are instructions on how folks can move any
in-flight work over to the newly tidied repo.

This follows #1274 , #1325 , and #1328 . It fills in the "Bidirectional interoperability with C and C++" section.

This follows #1274 and #1325 and fills in the "safety" section. It only covers our approach in general terms.

This follows #1274 . It mainly fills in the "generics" section, with smaller updates to other section.

Prior to this change, the section headings for the 7 main goals are visually indistinguishable (in GitHub's rendering) from the boldfaced paragraph headings in those sections. This makes the doc hard to navigate because the structure is hidden.
Reorganizes the sections, and makes a pass filling in and updating the first sections including: types, functions, user-defined types. The following sections are left for part 2, including names, generics, and interop.
Also some smaller updates to, not revisiting the text: `pattern_matching.md`, `control_flow/return.md`, and `lexical_conventions/numeric_literals.md`

Some review feedback from outside the team directly working on Carbon suggested
two pretty significant updates here. First, we didn't do a good job of
motivating Carbon. This takes two parts, first explaining what we'd like to
accomplish with this approach generally, and second explaining why alternative
approaches don't work. A particularly difficult case here is articulating
effectively the difficulties that motivate an approach other than improving C++
incrementally.
