fca52b7914 ci: Update git paths to reflect new GitLab URI
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

7674fd1504 docs: Add a testing policy
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.

24e459e3d8 Rename the master branch to main
It’s a more inclusive name, has the same tab-completion prefix, and is
the default choice for new repositories created locally by git, and on
GitHub and GitLab.

f703bed5eb docs: Populate CODEOWNERS file
Rename it from CODE-OWNERS and make it follow the documented syntax
supported by GitLab:
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/code_owners.html. Currently our
version of GitLab doesn’t support it, but it may do in future.

1afeaa6cb3 docs: Drop signatures at the bottom of CONTRIBUTING.md
They’re out of date. Probably best to leave the document unsigned, since
it’s supposed to be endorsed by all the GLib maintainers.
