Docs/mm/damon/design: add a section for overall architecture
The design doc is missing overall picture of DAMON. Add a section for overall architeucture and layers.

Design
======
+
+Overall Architecture
+====================
+
+DAMON subsystem is configured with three layers including
+
+- Operations Set: Implements fundamental operations for DAMON that depends on
+ the given monitoring target address-space and available set of
+ software/hardware primitives,
+- Core: Implements core logics including monitoring overhead/accurach control
+ and access-aware system operations on top of the operations set layer, and
+- Modules: Implements kernel modules for various purposes that provides
+ interfaces for the user space, on top of the core layer.
