Summary

Documents the staging branch lane that was wired up by PR #623, so contributors know where to target their PRs.

What changes

  • CONTRIBUTING.md: new "Branch Flow" section right after Build & Test Commands. Names the three branches that participate in the release lane (staging, develop, main), spells out that feature PRs target staging, links the two auto-promotion workflows, and shows the flow as ASCII.
  • README.md: updates the "Typical patch flow" sentence so it starts from staging instead of develop.

Note

This is the first PR opened against staging — it doubles as a smoke test for the new lane.

Test plan

  • After merge into staging, auto-staging-pr.yaml opens the expected Promote: staging → develop PR.

CONTRIBUTING gains a Branch Flow section so contributors know to target
staging (not develop) and how the auto-promotion PRs are wired. README's
Typical-patch-flow line is updated accordingly.
