Add-a-type checklist in docs/ #50
Description
Adding a range type or a value set family touches the type, its factory, the JSON and TypeConverter attributes, AOT converter registration, the EF registry, the NodaTime satellite if it applies, the changelogs and the docs. Most of it is enforced by convention tests, but you only find out what you forgot when one fails.
Write it down as one checklist in docs/, with each step naming the test that would catch it if you skipped it.

Moved off 9.1.0 into the backlog (#83), with no milestone.
release/9.xhas been cut, and 9.1.0 ships with the work that's already finished. Nothing has started on this issue, and it shouldn't hold up the tag. Docs, tests and internal work aren't tied to a version, so this doesn't need a milestone until someone picks it up.When someone picks it up, it goes under the epic of the release it will ship in and takes that milestone. A 9.x minor would need the change cherry-picked onto

Superseded by #174 (PR #176), which documents the add-a-type procedure in docs/architecture.md#adding-a-range-or-set-type, built on the clone sweep rather than a checklist.
