Add note about checks have community support

This project is only trying to enforce the agreed upon style guide, not
dictate it.  We do not want a new check added if there is any doubt the
check from the community.  Because this project has very a limited
number of reviewers we have to be extra careful about dictating style to the
rest of the community. Consensus in hacking reviewers is not community
consensus.

Requirements
------------
- The check must already have community support. We do not want to dictate style, only enforce it.
- The canonical source of the OpenStack Style Commandments is `HACKING.rst <HACKING.rst>`_, and hacking just enforces them; so when adding a new check, it must be in HACKING.rst
- False negatives are ok, but false positives are not
- Cannot be project specific, project specific checks should be `Local Checks`_
