Revamp Governance Section: Proposal for a restructured and accurate section

[thenic95]

Hi everyone,

I think it's about time that we think about how to properly restructure and repurpose the governance section.

The current information could be more varied, and as the Chang Hard Fork is about to happen sometime in 2024, we should think about revamping the section to keep it up-to-date.

I have included my proposal below for you to take a look at. I would mainly want to rewrite the Overview.md file in the main category and build out the two new sub-categories, Cardano Governance and Governance Tutorials.

Please let me know what you think and if you would like to contribute, please let me know 😃
