Adds a section on design philosophy so we have something to point to
when people suggest features that aren't compatible with the way WPILib
is designed. Fixes some missed reorg changes (although the native-utils
link intentionally points to main as to be up-to-date in the future) and
generally cleans up any outdated information. Also includes wording
about supporting FTC. Per discussion in Slack, the LabVIEW wording has
been removed, and anything to do with LabVIEW is going to have to be
NI's job. And pursuant to #2757 and #5331, additional (light) developer
documentation has been added to some subprojects, mostly being a quick
summary of the what the project does and what it's for (or not for).

People generally have expressed a dislike for the Hungarian notation
used in member variables, especially in examples/templates, and our
styleguide shouldn't be forced on downstream consumers, so this removes
all Hungarian notation from the examples/templates.
There are _some_ benefits to Hungarian for private member variables
(like knowing what's a member vs. local in a PR review) so we'll keep
private member variables the same for now, but public variables should
no longer use Hungarian notation, since it looks much worse. A new PMD
XPath rule has been added to accomplish this goal. Some other
non-compliant variables were fixed for the new rule.
For parity with struct-serializable types.
Change struct serialization to only apply to types with a public static final <type> struct field, instead of relying only on the marker interface (which is not always followed). Doing this allows fallthrough to the protobuf handler for types with dynamic structs but static protobuf serializers.
I upgraded all plugins I could see except org.ysb33r.doxygen. 2.0 made
breaking changes, and I couldn't figure out how to migrate.
Most of the changes are for suppressing new linter purification rites.
Currently the major DataLog backend API (reading and writing) is split between wpiutil and glass. In the interest of allowing code that wants to use these APIs to not need to link to glass and declutter wpiutil, all of those APIs are moved to a new library named "datalog".

This reverts commit 469bb3290d.
The approach used has issues due to the fact unit symbols often have a literal / in them,
which causes issues with NT topic visualization.
A better approach would be to use topic metadata.
eg "getFoo()" will now be logged as "Foo", or "m_leftMotor" as "Left Motor"
It is now a compilation error to reuse the same logged name for multiple elements (since whatever is declared last would overwrite anything logged before it)
Do not log record fields (just use the accessors). This also fixes an issue where records could never be logged due to identical member and accessor names
Also skips toString, hashCode, and clone methods when generating loggers
Java generics are too limited to do what we need. This refactors generic code previously in Unit and Measure into unit-specific classes that can have unit-safe math operations (notably, times and divide) that can return values in known units instead of a wildcarded Measure<?>.
Unit-specific measure implementations are automatically generated by ./wpiunits/generate_units.py, which generates generic interfaces and mutable and immutable implementations of those interfaces. These make up the bulk of the diff of this PR (approximately 9300 LOC).
This also adds units for angular and linear velocities, accelerations, and momenta; moment of inertia; and torque.
