* Add basic initial developer docs for TSDB
There's a decent amount of content already out there (blog posts,
conference talks, etc), but:
* when they get stale, they don't tend to get updated
* they still leave me with questions that I'ld like to answer
for developers (like me) who want to use, or work with, TSDB
What I propose is developer docs inside the prometheus
repository. Easy to find and harness the power of the community
to expand it and keep it up to date.
* perfect is the enemy of good. Let's have a base and incrementally improve
* Markdown docs should be broad but not too deep. Source code comments
can complement them, and are the ideal place for implementation details.
