Guidelines documentation (elements packages)

[alisonjoseph]

Developer guidelines around how to use our elements packages are lacking or completely missing from the website.

• Color
• Icons
• Pictograms
• Motion
• Typography

These pages need an "Implementation" tab added, similar to the Grid page (https://www.carbondesignsystem.com/guidelines/2x-grid/implementation) so a developer coming to the website will know how to use the packages in their code.

Questions

• Why isn't layout on the website? Is that spacing instead? If so, they shouldn't be named the same thing.
• Why do pictograms and icons have their own contribute tab? This isn't the same pattern as we follow elsewhere on the site.
  • How many icons are contributed via this link? We should add fathom tracking to those links.
