Add Follow the Sun Coverage outline

David O'Regan requested to merge master-patch-9b14 into master

Why is this change being made?

As we did in MVC - GitLab WebIDE support - Code Suggestions (gitlab-org&10549 - closed), we should consider keeping a log of how to approach the following sun rotation. This approach is used when Results are not-optional, it takes a level of burden and stress off the DRI group to prevent them from working around the clock.

This change should consist of three parts:

  1. Create a Page of Follow the Sun Coverage in this MR.
  2. On that page describe what Follow the Sun Coverage is and add a section about the Follow the sun pairing in this MR.
  3. Refer to Follow the Sun Coverage under the Bias for Action Sub Value as an example, we will update gitlab-com/content-sites/handbook!184 (closed) to handle that.
