llvm dev - Jun 2020 - LLVM Incubator + new projects draft

The idea of adding an “incubation” stage to projects in the LLVM world seems to
be positively received.  I also noticed that we don’t really document the new
project policy in general in the LLVM Developer Policy.  To help with both of
these Stella and I worked together to draft up a new section for the LLVM
developer policy (incorporating the existing “New Targets” section).

Ahead of proposing a Phabricator patch, we put it into this google doc, I’d love
to get feedback on it from anyone who is interested in this:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ss4jGHywL0Y2KW_l4LqTo5CgJxx3i0_4-FkbXiPQMus/edit
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ss4jGHywL0Y2KW_l4LqTo5CgJxx3i0_4-FkbXiPQMus/edit>

Assuming no major concerns here, I’ll post the patch in the next couple days.

Thanks!

-Chris

Currently it doesn't open, "You need access", sanity check: is
viewing
allowed for everybody?

It says that “anyone on the internet is allowed to comment”, maybe this link
will work better?:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lC7cOJ2Iiqdx62o81J5YP7RzFHi8k2Rkt0zla-Kh6no/edit?usp=sharing
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lC7cOJ2Iiqdx62o81J5YP7RzFHi8k2Rkt0zla-Kh6no/edit?usp=sharing>

In any case, if google docs isn’t cooperating, then you can check it out when it
gets to Phabricator.
