Document the preferred branch naming format for contributors.

This adds a short git-username/type/short-description convention near the existing contributor workflow docs so branch names stay consistent without adding extra process.

Made with Cursor

Document the preferred branch name format so contributors use a
consistent username/type/description structure.
