CONTRIBUTING.md has been migrated to the rustc-dev-guide but some still refer there.
Update them with the appropriate links.

Fixes #74253

Since all previous compilers will be reporting a semi-broken link, perhaps it would be a good idea to add a small ## Bug reports section back to CONTRIBUTING.md that linked to the specific section in the guide (https://rustc-dev-guide.rust-lang.org/contributing.html#bug-reports)?

I agree with this but the link here is still useful for me. So, we could use the issue template link for further compiler errors and also use that section for previous ones, I think.

So, the problem here is that someone who sees the ICE message visits the CONTRIBUTING.md first, then they visit the getting started page following "To get started, read the Getting Started guide in the rustc-dev-guide.", and they cannot find any instruction about bug reports there (context: https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/122651-general/topic/Reporting.20an.20ICE).
Given this situation, for the previous message, we should prepare the bug reports section on the getting-started page or tell them to visit https://rustc-dev-guide.rust-lang.org/contributing.html, not the getting-started.html.

Sorry for the delay... I'm a bit low on bandwidth these days.

I think pointing to the template in the error message and then adding a section to CONTRIBUTING.md that points to the relevant section in the guide seems reasonable.

Hm this looks like a pretty annoying URL to output. I'm of half a mind to say we should create a redirect at, say, rust-lang.org/compiler-bug-report so we can readily update things in the future. It seems fine for the time being though.
