Closes #1517

Adds CONTRIBUTORS.md (issues-only policy + version→board/branch/label table), the PR-template pointer, and an AGENTS.md ## Contributing link.

Provenance: this work was briefly folded into the Wave-1 rollup (1579-wave-1 / #1601) during review, then pulled back out — it's unrelated to the #1510 Apps-host decomposition that defines Wave 1. This PR is the real, standalone path to v2/main. Clean history (cherry-picked the doc commits onto v2/main, no rollup/merge/empty-commit noise). The old #1537 shows "merged into 1579-wave-1" from that interim step and is superseded by this.

Document the contribution policy: we accept issues, not pull requests.
Maintainers handle design and implementation through a prompt-driven
workflow. Contributors who have already built a change locally should
share the prompt they used rather than a diff.

Cross-reference the policy from AGENTS.md.

…icy (#1517)

GitHub auto-populates pull_request_template.md into every new PR body,
so it steers would-be external PR authors to CONTRIBUTORS.md before they
submit a diff.

The policy takes effect after v2/main merges into main, leaving a single
line of development. Tell contributors to open a well-formed issue rather
than routing them to per-version project boards.

Completes requirement #2 of #1517: a table mapping each active version to
its base branch, project board, and version label, plus a "Label by
version" note mirroring AGENTS.md.
