Lance Goyke a680ac7d77 Restructured writing documentation contributing guide.
This trims and clearly delineates the how to guide from the subsequent
explanation with additional subheadings.

These changes have been discussed with Daniele Procida
at the DjangoCon US 2023 sprints.

The documentation in this tree is in plain text files and can be viewed using
any text file viewer.

It uses `ReST`_ (reStructuredText), and the `Sphinx`_ documentation system.
This allows it to be built into other forms for easier viewing and browsing.

To create an HTML version of the docs:

* Install Sphinx (using ``python -m pip install Sphinx`` or some other method).

* In this docs/ directory, type ``make html`` (or ``make.bat html`` on
  Windows) at a shell prompt.

The documentation in ``_build/html/index.html`` can then be viewed in a web
browser.
