What kind of changes does this PR include?
Added a brief section on "Voice" to the guide with two points:
using "you" (if needed) instead of we, we'll, us, let's etc. (You are not there with the reader at this exact moment.) And, I can't believe it needs to be said not to use I, but that came up in something I read/watched so apparently it's a thing. 😅
some general guidance re: exclamation points.
(NB: Voice and tone are similar, but since we have a section for Tone that says "mostly follow Google", for now I'm using this section "Voice" for more technical, specific to us, points.)
