This patch standardizes the CONTRIBUTING.rst file and adds the
required doc/source/contributor/contributing.rst

Swift already had a detailed CONTIRBUTING.rst and an informative
REVIEW_GUIDELINES.rst in the root of the repo. So we are also pulling
them into the contributor documentation so they can not only be easily
found in the checked repo but in the online documentation.

Welcome to Swift's documentation!

Swift is a highly available, distributed, eventually consistent object/blob store. Organizations can use Swift to store lots of data efficiently, safely, and cheaply.

This documentation is generated by the Sphinx toolkit and lives in the source tree. Additional documentation on Swift and other components of OpenStack can be found on the OpenStack wiki and at http://docs.openstack.org.
