Add a better Contributing guideline

Created by: gaearon

We should explain:

  • Constraints (e.g. no flags, no configuration)
  • Strategies (find good defaults, good heuristics can make)
  • Actively find ways to improve DX (e.g. remove noise, implement things you didn’t see in other tools but wish were there)
  • Try to make the least controversial choices (would that work for 95% of users? would beginners understand this?)
  • Coordinate on an issue in case somebody else is already working on the PR you want
  • If you submit a PR please provide a test plan (how did you verify it works?)
  • Release guidelines (how to run the script, update changelog etc)
