Rollup merge of #77268 - follower:patch-3, r=jyn514
Link to "Contributing to Rust" rather than "Getting Started".
Change to link to "Contributing to Rust" chapter of `rustc` Dev Guide, primarily on the basis that:
* The GitHub "first contribution" Issue "pop-up" says "Be sure to review the [contributing guidelines] and [code of conduct]" and links to this file.
* The "Bug Report" section _seems_ to restrict itself to if "a compiler error message [told] you to come here".
* The previous content of `CONTRIBUTING.md` now lives in the "Contributing to Rust" chapter.
When/if the guide/"Getting Started" section gets revised to not be `rustc`-specific, the choice of linked chapter could be updated.
In the meantime this prevents leading first time contributors into a confusing cul de sac.
_[I wasn't planning to make a PR for this until discussion in #77215 concluded but the discovery that the "first issue" pop-up also links to this document IMO makes it a higher priority to make the link useful sooner rather than later.]_
