2022-07-29Add description of Signed-off-by lines David Gibson
dtc and libfdt have been using Signed-off-by lines (as used in the Linux kernel) for some time, like a lot of open source projects. However Uwe Kleine-König pointed out we never really stated what they mean in our context. Add information on what the S-o-b line means in CONTRIBUTING.md - this is essentially a quote of the same information from the kernel documentation, with some tweaks to make sense in the new context.

2022-07-28Split out information for contributors to CONTRIBUTING.md David Gibson
README.md covers both general information for people using and building the software, and more specific information for people contributing to either dtc or libfdt. Split out the latter information into its own file for easier reference. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
