Objective

Closes #1146

Do a last-pass edit of, and publish, the Contributing Guide.

Solution

Do a heavy scrutiny copy editing run across the whole of the Contributing Guide (this means stuff has changed from prior PRs necessitating reviews here and now), then remove it from public draft, and deprecate the old CONTRIBUTING.md. Also slightly modifies CSS to accommodate the navigation bar becoming crammed.

Notes

Note

I think some more editing could be done, but that'd be best for [a] follow-up[s]. Particularly what I mentioned in 9e127bb

Note

Also, deprecates bevy CONTRIBUTING.md, bevy/docs The Bevy Organization,and bevy/docs Release Checklist. Should have a follow-up PR in bevy to deprecate them properly.

Warning

Please review with great scrutiny since this is the final pass before the public gets to see it.

…ntribute

Easier on the navigation header.
Now that Contributing Guide has been shortened to Contribute, this is no longer needed. Still keeping the text-align: center tho.
This is a last resort to make sure stuff stays reasonable widths apart.
This way we can de-duplicate the information to one place.
This could still use some substantive editing regarding *what* constitutes a useful test.
It reads better this way.
Technically the Bevy Organization projects you can contribute to expands past the game engine, primarily the website, so I feel it is a good idea to make this distinction since a game engine is wildly different to a website for what you can contribute to it.

Also maybe some substantive editing regarding difference of Organization and Foundation may be needed to clarify things.
Since the callout version is a singular reference and unlikely to be re-used, I simply made it a masked link to reduce the false positive warnings.
Add some light humor to the sentence
People already mistakenly report websites issues to the Bevy repository sometimes, so it doesn't hurt to clarify this.
It's more readable this way compared to the tall text wall.

Right now this is 4th in the list on the "Learn" page. Should it be moved down, or is it fine where it is?

I'm unsure myself, I figured either Alice, or Cart, or really anyone, would chime in with a preference, or if no one had a preference then we'd let it be how it is currently.
