Add a new policy example demonstrating the bdk's policy structure
and how to derive it for any descriptor without creating a bdk wallet.

+///
+/// Policy is higher abstraction representation of the wallet descriptor spending condition.
+/// This is useful to express complex miniscript spending conditions into more human readable form.
+/// The resulting `Policy` structure  can be used to derive spending conditions the wallet is capable
+/// to spend from.
+///
+/// This example demos a Policy output for a 2of2 multisig between between 2 parties, where the wallet holds
+/// one of the Extend Private key.
