Add a design index

I had trouble trying to navigate designs, so maybe an overview will help
others find designs too.

Some designs are clearly marked with a title and PM/Dev assignments.
Some subdesigns, unfortunately, are marked the same way. So we have
trouble finding main vs sub-designs.

 # Standardized Environment Variables for CI Services
 
+**Dev** [Tomáš Matoušek](https://github.com/tmat)
+
 The .NET Core SDK is implementing new scenarios that require source control manager information. We want to make it very easy to embed repo-specific information in built assets as a means of creating a strong relationship between binary and source.
 
 To make it possible to provide application platform provided experiences across CI services, we need a standardized set of environment variables that are supported across those same CI services. Ideally, this set of environment variables would be supported across multiple CI services and useful for multiple application environments, not just .NET.

 # CLI Syntax Guidelines
 
+**PM** [Kathleen Dollard](https://github.com/KathleenDollard)
+
 Many tools have a CLI (command-line interface) which allows users to type English words to describe commands. This post describes how we build the syntax for commands in the .NET Core CLI. This articulates the guidelines that are similar to behavior of other CLIs, including Git (git), Angular (ng) and Azure (az).
 
 These guidelines were adopted as a goal for the CLI during .NET Core SDK 2.1.300 development. This version implements these goals for new features. Future SDKs will bring CLI syntax in line with these guidelines, while allowing existing syntax for backwards compatibility.

 .NET Core runtimes and SDKs are used together. They release independently, so it has been a challenge picking sensible version numbers. Going forward, the first and second positions of the version number will match for the Runtime and SDK. The third position will not match since the Runtime and SDK release independently.

 # Runtime Binding Behavior
 
+**PM** [Rich Lander](https://github.com/richlander)
+
 [Framework-dependent](https://docs.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/deploying/#framework-dependent-deployments-fdd)  applications require a .NET Core host to find a compatible runtime from a central location. The behavior of runtime binding is critical for both application compatibility and runtime deployment convenience. [Self-contained](https://docs.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/deploying/#self-contained-deployments-scd) apps don't have this need, because there is only one runtime they will ever use.

 # .NET Core GC Support for Docker Limits
 
+**PM** [Rich Lander](https://github.com/richlander)
+
 .NET Core has support for [control groups](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cgroups) (cgroups), which is the basis of [Docker limits](https://docs.docker.com/config/containers/resource_constraints/). We found that the algorithm we use to honor cgroups works well for larger memory size limits (for example, >500MB), but that it is not possible to configure a .NET Core application to run indefinitely at lower memory levels. This document proposes an approach to support low memory size limits, <100MB.
 
 Note: Windows has a concept similar to cgroups called [job objects](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/desktop/ProcThread/job-objects). .NET Core should honor job objects in the same way as cgroups, as appropriate. This document will focus on cgroups throughout.
