Document how to install clang-format-18 (via pip or apt) and how to run
it locally to format code before submitting a pull request. This helps
new contributors avoid CI failures from the clang-format check.
Fixes#649

I think a lot of new contributors are not aware how they can run the
extended list of tests in their forked repo branch with other test
arguments.
This change could be helpful to some people.

We recently introduced a new template to create `test failures` issues
from a template. This change makes this template visible in the
`CONTRIBUTING.md` file. Also, added a tip to paste the stack trace since
outputs of CI links can expire.

Update CONTRIBUTING.md:
* A more friendly approach, hopefully.
* The note about receiving patches is moved to the DCO section.
* Some "Get started" links in a bullet list (inspired by OpenTofu's
contributing file).
* For questions, refer to GitHub Discussions and Discord instead of only
Discord.
* Minor edits and formatting.
Update issue templates:
* The issue template for questions is replaced by a link to Discussions
and to Matrix and Discord chats.
* Add a link to the valkey-doc repo.
* The crash report template is extended into a form, with separate
fields for the crash report and the additional info.

This little suggestion can help contributors to link their PRs to
issues. This, in turn, helps the maintainers.

Documentation references should use `Valkey` while server and cli
references are all under `valkey`.

Update the contributor file to include a DCO, which are going to require
for all incoming contributions to provide indication that the
contributor has the rights to contribute the code.
I also fixed the formatting of contribution HOWTO, since it was getting
mangled.
