Werkdock RFC 0001: implementation language evaluation, proposing Go

The full five-way evaluation (bash, Python 3, Kotlin Native, Rust, Go)
with the numeric scoring, the Kotlin Native deep-dive, and the
own-namespaces-instead-of-bwrap analysis, ending in a concrete proposal:
Go, stdlib-only, one static binary, sandbox engine behind an interface
so bwrap can later be swapped for native namespaces.

Status proposed — the decision outcome is recorded once made.

- `werkdock doctor` checks the host: user-namespace capability, disk and quota headroom.
Status: bootstrap.
The implementation language is proposed in [RFC 0001](docs/rfcs/0001-implementation-language.md) (Go).
Werkdock grows in this subdirectory of the Werkator repository and moves to its own repository once it stands on its own.
It must stay self-contained: no imports from Werkator code, no Gradle coupling to the Werkator build.
The roadmap is session B of [docs/plan/21-werkdock-extraction-and-webspace-install.md](../docs/plan/21-werkdock-extraction-and-webspace-install.md).
