Create a branch of the Guides repo for information architecture prototyping

A description of the work

We'd like to prototype some new information architecture. In order to do that, we need to make a branch of the guides repo for us to play around in, independent of the ongoing replatforming work.

@kbighorse - I've flagged this work to @igorkorenfeld and @eric-gade, who are both working on Guides replatforming.

As of right now, this issues is pretty light and lacks technical context. I could use some help elaborating so we know exactly what we're doing and that the language we're using is accurate.

Pausing on this effort due to some changes in priority.

Closing as done, since we abandoned this path.
