This PR adds a file for us to add data on "quality" implementations, for some defined characteristics of how we maight characterize such a thing. The file is nearly fully stubbed out -- so essentially the key content is the comment here, which we can use to farm this out hopefully.
Overall I tried to stress we're exposing data points here, not trying to (hopelessly) define a metric for what good and bad code/projects are.
There is obvious overlap here with our existing list of implementations -- note though that we have loose (or no) criteria for listing implementations on the page. Here instead we wish to specifically raise languages for which we know no good implementation to exist, despite the language being popular or widespread, if any.
What's here does not yet render this data anywhere, nor does it implement the dynamic API calling mentioned in the body (for retrieving statistics from any listed repository).
What it does do is identify a simple initial list of languages (from TIOBE and GitHub's own lists), and propose a format for tracking data points about implementations meeting the proposed criteria.
The initial goal is to get feedback on this template, and to solicit help in filling it in for these languages.
