In the new contributing docs, it would be good to document Gatsby's Governance Model. From oss-watch:

A governance model describes the roles that project participants can take on and the process for decision making within the project. In addition, it describes the ground rules for participation in the project and the processes for communicating and sharing within the project team and community. In other words it is the governance model that prevents an open source project from descending into chaos.

We have an RFC process, and this document could sit alongside it to communicate more about the Gatsby process to contributors.

Here is the Vue.js version: https://github.com/vuejs/vue/wiki/Governance-Document

To close this issue, we need to write a governance model for Gatsby and include the content in the contributing section.

## Description

As per [rfc/29](gatsbyjs/rfcs#29), this PR introduces a major change to the Gatsby docs: a new `/contributing` section. I did a big find and replace to update all links, and there are also redirects for pages that moved.

This is a pretty large PR, and I welcome any and all feedback on the new structure and content. My only request is that we try to resolve any feedback quickly so that community PRs aren't working on outdated stuff.

Here's a screenshot of the new Contributing landing page:

## Related Issues

Fixes #11803, Fixes #8847 

## Outstanding questions
- Do we need to make any additional changes to CODEOWNERS?
- I included a link to `/contributing` in the docs sidebar to ease the transition. Should the link use some kind of icon to distinguish that it takes the user away from the docs?
- Should we add a new icon to the mobile nav (I didn't make any mobile changes in this PR)?
- Any changes to the sidebar, specifically around accordions?

## Subsequent related issues/stubs

Hey @calcsam, any interest in helping us work on this governance model doc? Your work on the Gatsby Philosophy doc was so appreciated!

On a related note, it's worth looking to the Wordpress community for examples of why we need governance outlined and followed. Here's a thread for some food for thought: https://twitter.com/mor10/status/1113223629804699648

Hey, @Mujeex ! I have a draft that's been "in progress" for a while that I'd love another set of eyes on. If you email me at caitlin@gatsbyjs.com, I can share the doc with you. Thanks!
