Wojciech Mitros d1ff8f1db3 docs: add strong consistency doc

Add a new docs/dev document for the strongly consistent tables feature.
For now, it only contains information about the Raft metadata persistence,
but it should be updated as more of the strong-consistency components are
added.

Scylla developer documentation

This folder contains developer-oriented documentation concerning the ScyllaDB codebase. We also have a wiki, which contains additional developer-oriented documentation. There is currently no clear definition of what goes where, so when looking for something be sure to check both.

Seastar documentation can be found here.

User documentation can be found on docs.scylladb.com

For information on how to build Scylla and how to contribute visit HACKING.md and CONTRIBUTING.md.
