docs: Add "Inventing the Service trait" guide (#585 )

This adds the first Tower guide called "Inventing the `Service` trait". It attempts to motivate all the parts to `Service` by walking the user through how they could have invented `Service` themselves, from scratch. It goes into quite a bit of detail but hopefully it paints a somewhat complete picture in the end.

The next guide I want to write is about how to implement a proper `Timeout` middleware using `Layer`, pin-project, and all the bells and whistles.

Tower

Tower is a library of modular and reusable components for building robust networking clients and servers.

Overview

Tower aims to make it as easy as possible to build robust networking clients and servers. It is protocol agnostic, but is designed around a request / response pattern. If your protocol is entirely stream based, Tower may not be a good fit.

Status

Currently, tower 0.4 is released on crates.io.
