The Linux kernel recently updated the wording of their sign-off
procedure, changing the ambiguous "real name" requirement to "a known
identity" and dropping "no pseudonyms". Anonymous contributions remain
uncommittable [1]. As discussed in the April 19, 2023 leadership
meeting, update our policy to go along with Linux and flashrom (who also
updated their policy).

Currently, this only exists on the old wiki and the developers.html page
on coreboot.org, but it really ought to be somewhere in the new docs
alongside the other contribution guidelines. This was largely copied
from the text from the developers.html page.

Markdown does not render newlines unless there is an empty line in
between the lines of text. Several command examples and a list were
missing these empty lines, causing their content to be rendered inline
with the preceding text.
Fix this by adding triple backticks around code blocks and bullet points
to rows of text in a list.

Commits that fix a recently-introduced regression can be submitted early
to minimise the impact of said regression. However, it is important that
the commit message properly reflects what is being fixed and what commit
introduced the issue.

The Gerrit Guidelines are related to the contributing process and also
contain documentation which goes beyond "Getting started". Thus, move
them to the "Contributing" section.
