docs: add purpose of this repo to argue the use of this repo for authz

[mariajgrimaldi]

Description

Add reasoning behind the decision to implement this project in a separate Django application instead of including it in the edx-platform directly. This is an early implementation decision, so it remains open to discussion until openly approved.

When can I expect my changes to be merged?

Our goal is to get community contributions seen and reviewed as efficiently as possible.

However, the amount of time that it takes to review and merge a PR can vary significantly based on factors such as:

• The size and impact of the changes that it introduces
• The need for product review
• Maintenance status of the parent repository

💡 As a result it may take up to several weeks or months to complete a review and merge your PR.

⚠️ We still need to setup this as a plugin / library so we have proper CI for the documentation.

[rodmgwgu]

Does this mean that this repository will be limited to example and experimental code? Or should we specify that the objective is that this repo will eventually be the source of truth for Authz implementation for the platform, as a library to be imported by other apps?

[mariajgrimaldi]

No, as you mentioned the idea for this library would be to implement the final authorization framework for the ecosystem. I added more clarification to avoid confusion:
