Clarify cli acquisition milestones and provide ecosystem context#353
Conversation
We want to make it clear that the public preview phase is still treating the tool as an experiment - we want to collect feedback and data to turn into a "should we make this a fully-supported product" decision through the public preview period. Then, based on that go/no-go decision with management, we have SDL and fit-and-finish requirements to go implement.

…nvm-rustup Expand Ecosystem Context with nvm/rustup deep dives and command comparisons
Move dotnetup proposal from @baronfel into 2026 folder. Doing this in the same commit to cause detection of the new folder
In this PR, I add onto the proposal from @baronfel to include a direct comparison, showing some of what I researched about `nvm` and how we thought about it when designing `dotnetup`. Some of this is pretty specific into technical detail and I want to avoid this document becoming huge and unreviewable. @baronfel's document also is a larger picture sell rather than a dive into the specifics, however I thought it would be helpful to have this information here. We can close these changes if we disagree and move it elsewhere. I tried to briefly touch on the topics without duplicating what will go into `dotnet/sdk/documentation/dotnetup` - the `hive` defaults and `path` handling alone will be their own documents. It can take several pages to explain.

More of this is generated text, but I've modified it and done some fact checking.
