Description
#### Bug, feature request, or proposal:
Feature Request - Menu Docs
#### What is the expected behavior?
The docs would include an example of building a menu from a data structure similar to the [radio button docs](https://material.angular.io/components/radio/examples).
#### What is the current behavior?
The [menu docs](https://material.angular.io/components/menu/overview) only include a nested menu example using static HTML.
#### What are the steps to reproduce?
Working on a Stackblitz demo atm...
#### What is the use-case or motivation for changing an existing behavior?
This is a common use case for building application menus, especially for business applications. The data may come from a config file, a REST API, or some other source but it is very often not static and does not align with a static HTML example.
#### Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, TypeScript, browsers are affected?
Angular 4.4.3
TypeScript 2.3.4
Chrome 61
OS X El Capitan
#### Is there anything else we should know?
Thank you for your hard work on this library!
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the menu documentation and compare its static nested-menu example with the dynamic-data pattern in the radio button documentation. Review the reported StackBlitz demo if available. Done means the menu docs include a working nested-menu example built from a data structure, with behavior that is clear from the example.
