The contributing instructions in the README are not in the GitHub contributing guide, which means that people coming from the GitHub issues are less likely to see them. By copying those instructions here, we are more likely to have less errors like not using gofmt and so on. Another option would be removing the section from the README, and pointing users to the Contribute guide there, to stop duplication. But I am not sure this is entirely necessary.

Let me know if the 80-character issue needs to be adhered to for docs. Happy to change it.

I should add a note to the Contribute file to make sure to wrap your lines in your commit messages to 80 characters. I'd be happy to add that to this PR, or in another subsequent one if that's easier.
