Some small updates to the 0494 proposal:

The status is now implemented on main.

The implementation links include our changes to Span and Buffer types.

Some small formatting fixes. GH markdown is a little more forgiving than canonical CommonMark spec. We can change a little formatting like adding extra line breaks before lists and angle brackets around links to better support both specs.

Also added a few extra line breaks in the sample code utility to make it easier to see the effects of the proposal.

The UTF8Span type was listed in both "Detailed Design" and "Future Directions". This is an error. When we made the decision to implement UTF8Span in this proposal it should have been removed from "Future Directions".

One might say, trivial updates 😉

@rjmccall All implementation diffs have landed now in latest main and we are ready for 6.4. Thanks!

Okay. We don't want to declare it as implemented in a release until the release actually happens, but the rest of this looks fine.

This should use "Swift Next" to correspond to main.
