Adds a CONTRIBUTING.md covering getting the code, building (autotools/GTK2/hamlib deps), coding conventions (matching the existing 4-space/no-tabs Emacs modeline and Doxygen comment style), how to submit changes, translations (the po/ gettext workflow), and an AI-assisted-contributions note.

Drafted with Claude Code, reviewed before submission.

Happy to adjust anything that doesn't match your actual preferences for the project.

There's no autogen.sh script. Instead use autoreconf -i

Good catch, thanks — fixed to match README.md's own autoreconf -i step rather than a script that doesn't exist in this repo. Pushed.
