[Community goal] Update contributor documentation

As the Ussuri goal we have an OpenStack project wide contributing
documentation template [1]. pyhton-novaclient use its own bug or feature
tracking LP and core team is also not exactly same as nova  so adding
its own contributor guide with keeping common links from nova
with python-novaclient specific information.

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.
