Write the first revision of Progmasoft C++ Style

Progmasoft C++ Style is a style guide for C++20, written for anyone
who wants a complete rule set to adopt. It writes down the conventions
the Progmasoft C++ projects already follow (naming, the clang-format
and clang-tidy profiles, exception-free error handling, Doxygen) and
decides what they left open.

Thirteen chapters under Guide/:

1. Principles: what the guide optimizes for and how to decide a case
   it does not cover.
2. Formatting: the full .clang-format profile, the reason for each
   choice, and the rules the tool cannot apply.
3. Naming: casing for every kind of name, acronyms, choosing words,
   namespaces, files.
4. Files and headers: extensions, #pragma once, includes, what goes in
   a header, the order inside a class, file size, vendored code.
5. Language: functions, auto, initialization, const and constexpr,
   casts, integers, strings, enumerations, templates and concepts,
   lambdas, control flow, and the features not used.
6. Types and classes: struct or class, final, construction, the rule of
   zero, inheritance, operators, strong types, optional and variant.
7. Errors: no exceptions by default, Expected and Error, invariants,
   fatal defects, destructors, diagnostics.
8. Ownership and memory: owners and borrowers, views and lifetimes,
   RAII, containers and deterministic iteration, allocation, undefined
   behavior.
9. Comments and documentation: Doxygen for public declarations,
   comments that explain why, TODOs that name an issue.
10. C interfaces: C11 headers, prefixes, opaque types, ownership and
    failure across the boundary, stability.
11. Concurrency: sharing less, threads, locks, thread-safety
    annotations, atomics, statics.
12. Testing: unit tests, fuzzing, sanitizers, benchmarks, coverage.
13. Tooling: the compiler flags, the full .clang-tidy profile with the
    reason for every disabled check, other checks, version pinning.

The guide prescribes no test, fuzzing or benchmark framework and no
error library; it prescribes how they are used. ADOPTING.md explains
how a project points to the guide, copies the profiles and records its
deviations. CONTRIBUTING.md explains how to propose a change.
