Enhance feedback and contributing guidelines

Many folks ask for help (via IRC or filing GitHub issues) without
sufficient detail and/or without first determining if the answers to
their questions might be better sourced elsewhere. These
documentation changes encourage users to follow certain guidelines
when reaching out for help.

@ -6,16 +6,7 @@ Here are some frequently asked questions about Pelican.
What's the best way to communicate a problem, question, or suggestion?
======================================================================
If you have a problem, question, or suggestion, please start by striking up a
conversation on `#pelican on Freenode <irc://irc.freenode.net/pelican>`_.
Those who don't have an IRC client handy can jump in immediately via
`IRC webchat <http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=pelican&uio=d4>`_. Because
of differing time zones, you may not get an immediate response to your
question, but please be patient and stay logged into IRC — someone will almost
always respond if you wait long enough (it may take a few hours).
If you're unable to resolve your issue or if you have a feature request, please
refer to the `issue tracker <https://github.com/getpelican/pelican/issues>`_.
Please read our :doc:`feedback guidelines <contribute>`.
