Gold856 97d0b15f7d Add README files for some subprojects and update various other docs (#8640)
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generally cleans up any outdated information.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).

javacPlugin

A javac plugin for use in WPILib and WPILib robot projects. Combined with wpiannotations, this plugin analyzes source code to ensure the constraints laid out by the specified annotations are followed (to the extent static analysis allows) in order to reduce user mistakes.

Design guidelines

This plugin should only be used for static analysis, not to enhance the Java language with syntax features. Adding additional syntax features is outside the scope of this plugin and can be confusing to beginners.
