Add domain names and DNS handbook page

Jeff Martin requested to merge add-domain-names-to-sandbox-cloud into master

Why is this change being made?

This adds details about how domain names and DNS records are managed at GitLab to mitigate recent questions and confusion due to lack of documentation.

This page should help condense the https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/finance/expenses/#domain-name-registration-and-maintenance-policy section to just the financial aspects and cross-link to this page for technical details.
