Add the WIP 10k ref architecture specs to HA docs
The 10,000 user reference architecture work is ongoing. However, we have done some preliminary investigation and testing and have an idea of what we think the environment might look like. In the interest of transparency, efficiency and iteration, let's get this out there.
