Revamped content and layout of project docs (README, CONTRIBUTING, etc) (#2770)
* Moved "optional" project documentation files to docs/ subdir to minimise clutter in project root.

* Verbatim copy of Contributor Covenant v2.1. Updated code of conduct contact details, removing anyone who don't list obvious contact details (@lyzidiamond and @tcql).

* Split publishing topic out into a separate document. Only a small subset of contributors will ever publish so better to have CONTRIBUTING focus on coding and PR related activities.

* Updated issue and PR templates to read a bit better, ask for more meaningful details.

* Updating open collective stats, project goals for coming year.

* Split readme into a few pieces. Cut a lot of cut and paste commands (hard to guarantee currency). Removed REGEN references - think it's use should be discouraged, though probably differing opinions on that one!

About Turf.js

TurfJS is a modular geospatial analysis library designed for use in the browser as well as Node.js. We provide almost 120 modules for people to use freely in their applications. Our most popular module is downloaded 4,200,000 times a week via npm.

Why we're looking for support

TurfJS is a community-driven project maintained by a small group of core contributors who work on the project in their spare time. Time is spent investigating issues, supporting users, improving documentation, fixing bugs, and adding new functionality. Your funding will go directly to development costs, marketing campaigns, promotional events, and other expenses needed to maintain and promote TurfJS.

In particular, we're looking for corporate sponsors who use TurfJS in revenue-generating ways, either by creating applications for clients, or through use in an app used by customers. Of course individuals are welcome to support us as well if TurfJS has helped you :)
