Design: Generic Landing Page

[lidel]

@akrych noted that we have various issues related to this, but no "meta-issue" to track progress across all repos, so here it is :)

There is ongoing work that could (potentially) benefit from a common "template":

• Display a Landing Page on New Installs / Big Updates (Display a Landing Page on New Installs / Big Updates ipfs-companion#324)
• Check Page for Distributed Web (Create Check Page for Distributed Web in-web-browsers#61)
• <your project, library that lacks nice landing page/template>

So far we:

• started with initial mockups for a Landing Page at WIP PR [WIP] Add landing pages ipfs-companion#326
• work-in-progress: ipfs-ui-style-guide – a shared style guide for UI design in the IPFS universe that extracts common visual features from prior art, builds on top of it and documents everything in reusable form

Let's keep this ticket open to improve discoverability of related efforts until we have a single template page that follows style guide and can be quickly dropped into projects (eg. static-page-demo.html in ipfs-ui-style-guide repo?).
