Thomas Haller 3c36231706 CONTRIBUTING: update comment about requiring LGPL-2.1+ license instead of LGPL-2.0+
Historically, libnm claimed to be LGPL-2.0+ licensed. But as keep mixing that
with LGPL-2.1+ code (e.g. from systemd), so probably even the parts that
claimed to be LGPL-2.0+, were not entirely correctly doing so.

Anyway, since we switched to SPDX license identifiers, we now claim
everywhere that the right license is LGPL-2.1+. Update the comment to
reflect that.

Thomas Haller 1ed338fe5e CONTRIBUTING: reword "novel contributions" to "new contributions"
The meaning of "novel" and "new" here is the same, but "novel" als
has a meaning related to patents. So avoid that confusion.

Thomas Haller a3e75f3294 CONTRIBUTING: style update
Also drop the paragraph about "autoconf mechanism". The general
guideline is self evident, while it didn't mention meson builds.
Also, a first time contributor likely won't likely be concerned about
this, as this is already advanced.

Thomas Haller 35c120ee15 doc: update CONTRIBUTING to no longer allow // FIXME comments
Most of our FIXME/TODO comments are already (rightly) /**/.
Just get rid of this non-obvious inconsistancy in our coding
style.
