The GitLab instance has been moved around, so the SSH clone URI for
repositories has changed. Change that in `CONTRIBUTING.md`, and also
change to using a relative path in `.gitmodules` to insulate from
similar URI changes in future.
Changing to a relative path in `.gitmodules` also enables the CI to use
submodules more easily: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/git_submodules.html

This documents our existing testing best practices, and tries to explain
some of the rationale around them.
There’s some new policy around performance tests, specifying that they
are good to keep around if they are high quality (so they can be used
again, the effort put into them not thrown away, and the numbers
compared over time) and that they should be runnable automatically to
avoid bitrot.
Everything else just documents existing practice.

GitHub and GitLab.

They’re out of date. Probably best to leave the document unsigned, since
it’s supposed to be endorsed by all the GLib maintainers.
