Add guide for adding gestures to components

With Angular v9, we removed direct gesture handling in Angular Material. We did this for a number of reasons, including:

  • Drop dependency on mostly unmaintained HammerJS
  • Give people flexibility to use other gesture solutions
  • No requirement to add gesture code for users that don't actually want it
  • Simplify project setup

However, we should still have a guide that explains how to add gestures for users that want them. The guide should cover topics including:

  • Swiping out a sidenav
  • Swiping between tabs
  • Swiping items away on a list / table
  • Swiping calendar months
