LG!
I'm going ahead and approving as this seems especially uncontroversial and something we can also easily adjust in the future if something ends up not working. The core change makes lots of sense and has been discussed without any real concerns being raised.

First step in updating `docs/design/generics/details.md`. It incorporates changes from proposals: #989 #2138 #2173 #2200 #2360 #2964 #3162 , but there are still more changes from those proposals to be made. It also switches away from suggesting static-dispatch witness tables, and creates an appendix to describe that decision. --------- Co-authored-by: Richard Smith <[email protected]>

Includes proposals: - #990 - #2188 - #2138 - #2200 - #2360 - #2760 - #2964 - #3162 Also tries to use more precise language when talking about: - implementations, to avoid confusing `impl` declaration and definitions with the `impls` operator used in `where` clauses, an issue brought up in #2495 and #2483; - "binding patterns", like `x: i32`, and "bindings" like `x`. --------- Co-authored-by: Chandler Carruth <[email protected]>

Change terminology away from terms that are ambiguous:
VectorinVector(T:! type). Don't use that term to refer toT, as it would with #2360.letbindings.
