adding rfc for webview information

[chrisdavidmills]

What was wrong/why is this fix needed? (quick summary only)

In the previous browser compat data project meeting, we decided that it would be good to add information to MDN on dealing with WebView environments, from the perspective of a web developer trying to support them in their apps/sites. This RFC aims to define that work.

MDN URL of main page changed

Thanks @sideshowbarker ; suggestions committed.

It this more about "How do I test if my site is running in a WebView environment at runtime?" or "How do I test my site in a WebView environment?" (I think we need both).

[chrisdavidmills]

I agree that we need both; I'll update the RFC to include this. Thanks!

[chrisdavidmills]

I think this is looking good now; merging.

@chrisdavidmills I have done some research on WebViews in the past. The content of this paper is up for grabs and freely available (licensed as CC BY-NC-ND 4.0).

(Meta: I found the RFC, but don't really know how to submit feedback, which is probably simply due to the fact that the RFC hasn't been "sent around to key stakeholders".)

Thanks @tomayac ; that's really useful, and I'll add it to the RFC.

The idea is that it can be a living document and be commented on and updated after it is published. We didn't really think about the best way to give feedback after publication, but I think any suitable way is fine, be it a google doc, or issue, or PR even...
