New guide explaining the core Java platform concepts (JVM, classpath, JARs, Maven coordinates, packages, AOT compilation) that Clojure documentation frequently uses without introduction. Based on feedback that terms like "classpath" and "JAR" are used throughout the deps and CLI docs and reference pages without being defined, creating a barrier for developers coming from non-Java backgrounds. Fixes clojure#543
