Balazs Gibizer 612c36034b [Community goal] Update contributor documentation
As the Ussuri goal we have an OpenStack project wide contributing
documentation template [1]. Nova has its own contributor documentation
so this patch adds the new contributing.rst according to the global
template and links the sections in it to the existing Nova contributor
documentation.

Also the top level CONTRIBUTING.rst template has been changed in the
cookiecutter repo[2]. So this patch updates the CONTRIBUTING.rst according
to the new template.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:

Developers

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst.

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests.
