Draft proposal: Clarify guidance for use of a BOM as a UTF-8 encoding signature

[Tom Honermann]

Attached is a draft proposal for the Unicode standard that intends to 
clarify the current recommendation regarding use of a BOM in UTF-8 
text.  This is follow up to discussion on the Unicode mailing list 
<https://corp.unicode.org/pipermail/unicode/2020-June/008713.html> back 
in June.

Feedback is welcome.  I plan to submit 
<https://www.unicode.org/pending/docsubmit.html> this to the UTC in a 
week or so pending review feedback.

Tom.
