Pull request overview
This PR refreshes the repository’s contributor documentation by archiving the prior contribution guide and introducing a new, shorter CONTRIBUTING.md focused on the current development workflow (Codespaces + html2 test harness).
Changes:
- Added an archived copy of the previous guide as
.github/CONTRIBUTING.old.mdwith a pointer to the new document. - Rewrote
.github/CONTRIBUTING.mdto emphasize Codespaces-based development, the local test browser workflow, and VRT guidance.
