What?

This pull request updates the release process documentation in CONTRIBUTING.md to clarify announcement steps and contributor recognition. The most important changes are:

Release announcement process:

  • The release announcement step now specifies publishing on Make/AI, cross-posting to Make/Core and Make/Test, and provides an example link for reference.

Contributor recognition:

  • Added a step to grant new contributors the Core AI Contributor profile badge after a release.

Why?

Adds a bit more clarity and steps to our release process to continually improve our docs (mainly because I don't want to have to be responsible for all releases).
