Adds Customer Escalations for Support Engineers workflow

Lyle Kozloff requested to merge lyle-add-escalated-customers-for-engineers into master

Why is this change being made?

Account escalations are tricky, and we don't have a specific workflow for Support Engineers. The closest we have is https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/support/workflows/emergency-to-escalation-process.html, but it doesn't address some needed points about proactive communication sufficiently to be used by Support Engineers.

This MR adds a page that talks specifically about the role of Support Engineers in escalations.
