Motivation for this change

A follow up for #98563 (cc @raboof).

Things done

Copied nixpkgs' "how to contribute" file into NixOS' and adjusted it accordingly.

  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Great to have this in the docs!

Instead of putting a README in the directory where the manual is
written, put the information from it straight in the docs themselves.
It's a bit untrivial to guess the manual is located exactly there for
contributers.
