a6ddc03aa6 Generics goals (#24 )

The "generics" feature of Carbon is a large design effort that needs to be broken up into manageable steps. The first thing we need is a high-level goals document. The goals here reflect the desirable properties that we have discovered as part of considering several alternative generics designs:

-   Use cases:
    -   Generic programming
    -   Upgrade path from C++ abstract interfaces
    -   Dependency injection
     -   Generics instead of open overloading and ADL
-   Performance
-   Better compiler experience
-   Encapsulation
-   Predictability
-   Dispatch control
-   Upgrade path from templates
-   Coherence
-   No novel name lookup
-   Learn from others
-   Interfaces are nominal
-   Interop and evolution
-   Bridge for C++ customization points

Goals are summarized in [this presentation](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/12yGyu5Pvdag7CJp-_yLVkmbhyvuRIilBTNlkO0LKaHo/edit?usp=sharing&resourcekey=0-JB9yrUO4-6J8-zzGhnIyNg).
