Replace CONTRIBUTING.md file with standard template for Workstation
This pull request replaces the existing CONTRIBUTING.md file with the standard template for the Workstation project. As part of the repo standardization effort we are replacing all the different contributing guides with a standard template that links to a published version of the chef-oss-practices repo.
This PR is intended to be a mere mechanical change, not a change in policy. Watch chef/chef-oss-practices for changes in policy.
The link provided in the template may not function at the time this PR is opened, in which case this PR is intended to remain in Draft status if the repo permits; in any case it should not be merged until the link is live.

Testing
-------
Whether your pull request is a bug fix or introduces new classes or methods to the project, we kindly ask that you include tests for your changes. Even if it's just a small improvement, a test is necessary to ensure the bug is never re-introduced.

We understand that not all users submitting pull requests will be proficient with RSpec. The maintainers and community as a whole are a helpful group and can help you with writing tests. The [Better Specs](http://betterspecs.org/) site should provide some helpful resources to get you started.
