A proposal to make the Guild eligibility framework more explicit for existing and prospective members, as well as aligning the member process to match.

I've requested review from the people who engaged in the DVT discussion - looking for feedback on the concept of "projects vs members" generally, as well as the specific projects linked and any I missed.

This PR includes:

  1. a rewrite of the Qualifications section to have a list of projects and research areas
  • Currently includes unspecific references to the “ethos of decentralization,” a list of general characteristics that contributions should have, and descriptions of possible exceptions - among other things
  • Over the course of the Pilot, it became clear that the eligibility and the process for changing it should be better defined - see the DVT discussions and the resulting "tiers" concept which came from that discussion
  1. a rewrite of the Proposing and Discussing New Members section
  • Instead of proposing new members and new projects at the same time, the new process splits them into two distinct proposal types: “Members” and “Projects”
  • the rewrite will better align with these more explicit Qualifications
  1. removal of "team" references on the landing page, given this PR moves to a project/research area framework. there are other references in the membership section which will need to be cleaned up in a subsequent PR

- this PR adds explicit projects and research areas which maintain and progress the core protocol
- a rewrite of the Proposing and Discussing New Members section. The rewrite will better align with these more explicit Qualifications

delete list of teams to align with new qualifications around projects or research areas
language tweaks, more example projects

one minor point for discussion but I think overall this looks really good.

Left a few minor fixes for doc 4 but other than that looks good to me.
