Move CONTRIBUTING.md from docs/ to repo root for inheritance #64

@JacobPEvans

Description

@JacobPEvans

Problem

CONTRIBUTING.md is located at docs/CONTRIBUTING.md instead of the repo root. GitHub only inherits community health files from the root of the .github repo — files in subdirectories are not inherited.

Evidence

New repos like ai-workflows don't get a CONTRIBUTING.md from .github inheritance because it's in the wrong location.

Suggested Fix

Move docs/CONTRIBUTING.md to the repo root. Optionally keep a symlink or redirect in docs/.

Found during ai-workflows inheritance audit.
