I went ahead and created this page:
http://bazaar-vcs.org/SharedRepositoryLayouts

Undoubtedly it needs some cleanup, and other pages should be updated to
reference this page.

I tried to describe the layouts that I'm aware of, and give a little bit
of discussion why one might prefer one over the other.

All of this, however, is my opinion, and people are likely to disagree.
I would like the page to generally have a bit of "consensus" about what
is good/bad about different layouts.

By far the most common is the "SVN" layout, because SVN is more common
than Bazaar so most people are familiar and comfortable with it. (well,
that an the "all branches in a single directory" layout).

Eventually we should take the document and add it to the source tree
(doc/*.txt). But for now, I wanted to get feedback by putting it on the
wiki.
