What would you like to be added:

Similar to https://gateway-api.sigs.k8s.io/api-types/backendtlspolicy/, we should have a dedicated documentation page for BackendLBPolicy, which was released as experimental in v1.1.

The documentation should describe the goals of BackendLBPolicy, how to use the policy, and descriptions of the fields.

Why this is needed:

Though the current usage of BackendLBPolicy is documented well in GEP-1619, we should have a user-facing doc to be consistent with BackendTLSPolicy, as we don't expect end-users to dig through GEPs to better understand how a policy works.

@shaneutt @robscott Do you agree with the documentation need here? I noticed BackendTLSPolicy has a dedicated page, so it made sense to me to dedicate one to BackendLBPolicy. What do you think the priority of this issue is?

@gcs278 I agree that since this is out as experimental we should document it similarity as you proposed.

/triage accepted

As for priority it can be hard to say. I'll mark it important-longterm for the moment, but I would recommend you put an agenda item to talk about this our next sync so we can get others to weigh in.

Big +1 from me, I agree this should have a user-facing doc that we can keep up to date and can be the source of truth for how this works.
