As the Ussuri goal we have an OpenStack project wide contributing documentation template [1]. os-vif use its own bug or feature tracking LP and core team is also not exactly same as nova so adding its own contributor guide with keeping common links from nova with os-vif specific information. Also the top level CONTRIBUTING.rst template has been changed in the cookiecutter repo[2]. So this patch updates the CONTRIBUTING.rst according to the new template.
