Emphasizing components over CI template contributions

Dov Hershkovitch requested to merge dhershkovitch-master-patch-55e6 into master

What does this MR do and why?

Per #433240 (closed) This is the first MR that updates our contribution guide.

Over the past several years GitLab had accepted contributions from Partners and customers through CI templates, there were many challenges in this process, as explained in this issue https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/433441+ In this MR we discourage users from continuing to contribute CI template and instead use the CI/CD catalog and component. In the upcoming MRs we are going to continue updating our contribution guide, to streamline community contribution of CI components with our community and partners
