Part of the standardize-readme-and-contributing change.

What

New CONTRIBUTING.md — the ## Development and ## Releasing sections move here verbatim (the pnpm workflow, the nested-shell instructions, the docs/testing.md pointer and the release-please flow). Headings stay plain.

README.md — gains the approved emoji headings and a pointer to the new guide:

# 🐾 Gitify GNOME Shell extension
## 📋 Requirements
## 🚀 Install
### 🌐 From extensions.gnome.org
### 🎁 From a release bundle
## 🔧 How it works
## 🤝 Contributing   <- new, links to CONTRIBUTING.md
## 👏 Credits
## 📄 License

Notes

• Contributor-only content no longer lives in the README; the README keeps the product description, requirements, install steps, how-it-works and credits.
• All install links, the extensions.gnome.org links and the requirements text are unchanged.
• 🔧 is used for "How it works" because the approved vocabulary maps Usage/How it works to 🔧. 📋 Requirements and 🚀 Install are kept distinct so no emoji is reused for two roles in one document. 🐾 is the GNOME brand emoji.
• Devin/CI config is untouched.
