Sébastien Han db17533435 docs: add design doc template
Rook already has a design process in place when introducing new
functionality. The only missing thing is a clear template to bring
consistency in our design documents.

This is inspired and shrunk version of
https://github.com/openshift/enhancements/tree/master/guidelines to add
some guidelines when it comes to writing a design document.

Summary

Goals

List the specific goals of the proposal. How will we know that this has succeeded?

Non-Goals

What is out of scope for this proposal? Listing non-goals helps to focus discussion and make progress.

Proposal details

This is where we get down to the nitty gritty of what the proposal actually is. API changed in any, Golang snippets.

Risks and Mitigation

What are the risks of this proposal and how do we mitigate. Think broadly. For example, consider both security and how this will impact the larger OKD ecosystem.

Drawbacks

The idea is to find the best form of an argument why this feature should not be implemented.

Alternatives

Similar to the Drawbacks section the Alternatives section is used to highlight and record other possible approaches to delivering the value proposed by a feature.

Open Questions [optional]

This is where to call out areas of the design that require closure before deciding to implement the design.
