Research direction

Start with the linked matryoshka README example and the Gitter discussion to understand the proposed Typelevel and incubator badges and the color concern. Done means an agreed recommendation for the badges and their visual treatment, with the relevant Typelevel project guidance updated.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

As discussed on gitter. It might be nice to have recommended badges for typelevel projects (and incubator projects).

There's an example in the matryoshka readme that looks like Typelevel incubator. I think that in this context the typelevel red looks a bit too much like a build failure icon. @larsrh has suggested using a pinkish shade from the typelevel logo.
