Introduce a new development-process.md detailing the formal RFC workflow for large changes, including TSC approval and specific criteria for architectural or security-critical updates. Update contributing.md and the root CONTRIBUTING.md to point to this new process, ensuring a clear and standardized path for both small and large contributions. This process is adapted from the Caliptra Contributing Process: https://github.com/chipsalliance/Caliptra/blob/main/doc/CaliptraContributingProcess.md Signed-off-by: Miguel Osorio <miguelosorio@google.com>
Introduce a standardized GitHub issue template for Request for Comment (RFC) proposals.

Update introduction.md and getting-started.md to use Bazel and Pigweed commands (pw presubmit, bazel test), replacing outdated cargo xtask commands to align with the current project workflow. Signed-off-by: Miguel Osorio <miguelosorio@google.com>
