Add a separate CONTRIBUTING.md file

Hopefully provides a /little/ more information about the build process.
Hey, also means I only need to add a CoC to complete GH's community tab!

In all seriousness, there's probably a lot more I need to flesh out
here, such as some kind of vision and guides for issues/PRs. But this at
least documents the local development process. Somewhat.

# Contributing to CC: Tweaked
As with many open source projects, CC: Tweaked thrives on contributions from other people! This document (hopefully)
provides an introduction as to how to get started in helping out.
If you've any other questions, [just ask the community][community] or [open an issue][new-issue].
## Reporting issues
If you have a bug, suggestion, or other feedback, the best thing to do is [file an issue][new-issue]. When doing so,
do use the issue templates - they provide a useful hint on what information to provide.
## Developing
In order to develop CC: Tweaked, you'll need to download the source code and then run it. This is a pretty simple
process.
- **Clone the repository:** `git clone https://github.com/SquidDev-CC/CC-Tweaked.git && cd CC-Tweaked`
- **Setup Forge:** `./gradlew setupDecompWorkspace`
- **Run Minecraft:** `./gradlew runClient` (or run the `GradleStart` class from your IDE).
If you want to run CC:T in a normal Minecraft instance, run `./gradlew build` and copy the `.jar` from `build/libs`.
These commands may take a few minutes to run the first time, as the environment is set up, but should be much faster
afterwards.
### Code linters
CC: Tweaked uses a couple of "linters" on its source code, to enforce a consistent style across the project. While these
are run whenever you submit a PR, it's often useful to
- **[Checkstyle]:** Checks Java code to ensure it is consistently formatted. This can be run with `./gradlew build` or
`./gradle check`.
- **[illuaminate]:** Checks Lua code for semantic and styleistic issues. See [the usage section][illuaminate-usage] for
how to download and run it.

I'd generally recommend you don't contact me directly (email, DM, etc...) unless absolutely necessary (i.e. in order to
report exploits). You'll get a far quicker response if you ask the whole community!
