Add discussion regarding trademarks to the "Starting an Open Source Project at Eclipse Foundation" section

Submitted by Wayne Beaton @wbeaton

Link to original bug (#537997)

Description

We do have some discussion regarding trademarks in the document (e.g. [1]) and the "Starting an Open..." section [2] does touch on the subject, but more detail will be valuable.

We should, for example, describe the trademark review and transfer process, offer some specific guidance regarding how to select a name, and ensure that the reader is aware that they will need to sign related domain names to the Eclipse Foundation.

It might be valuable to talk about expectations regarding technical namespaces (e.g. that projects should use "org.eclipse.*" for their Java namespace when technically feasible).
