Fixes #185
There was some confusion about where to draw the line for using RFC or PRs. As discussed in devcall we want to use RFCs for microservices, because a lot more discussion is required to explain the complexity of state machines and potentially multiple messages. PRs are generally fine for standalone messages or sets of messages without the additional complexity of a state machine.
This rewords the contribution categories around complexity, making it clear that PRs are for most simple changes. There may be some edge cases, but this more closely reflects how everyone works.
@TSC21 - can you please confirm that this is sufficiently unambiguous?
