Add On-the-Fly Garbage Collection Paper (#627)
This is the paper that introduced concurrent Garbage Collection via the tri-color marking invariant. It forms the basis for most non-concurrent incremental collectors as well. No matter where you stand on garbage collection, I think it’s useful (and interesting!) to know how collectors work, and this is one paper you’ll be hard-pressed to avoid when delving into the matter; despite the claim in the paper’s introduction that “it has hardly been our purpose to contribute specifically to the art of garbage collection, and consequently no practical significance is claimed for our solution”, this is definitely one of the most important and influential papers on GC ever written.

- NOTE: The paper "A Unified Theory of Garbage Collection" was already
  present in the garbage collection section, so I just added a brief
  summary.

db2633a8e7 Add a local copy of the Lisp II GC paper, "fix" link to the paper.
Some combination of markdown and GitHub don't support creating links
to ftp servers, so I'm including a copy of the paper and presenting
the URL to the paper as text instead of a link.

b3e7a5cefc Generalize the garbage collection directory
Rather than artificially separate garbage collection from other classes
of memory management, I propose moving garbage collection topics under
the more general label of memory management ("storage management" or
"memory allocation" might be reasonable alternatives).
