MPS design/shield: write a guide, plus links to initial ideas.
MPS mps.h: (comment-only) Clarify that format class A and B are alive and well. It's only the _typename_ "mps_fmt_[AB]_t" that is deprecated, and mps_fmt_[AB]_s* should be used instead. (The old terse "deprecated" mislead me every time I saw it).
MPS design/message: (cosmetic) centred h1 doc-title "MPS to Client Message Protocol"
