Reorganized description of process for contributing to clarify/increase readability

Changed the keyword for emailing from 'contact' to 'email' per https://github.com/swcarpentry/styles/issues/178 and changed the description for how to use GitHub to reflect usage of the web interface.

Close #152.

Based on https://github.com/swcarpentry/lesson-example/pull/144/files

Clarified instructions for using GitHub to contribute, altered link for [issues] to direct to GitHub page on navigating issues to avoid FIXME issue with link when initializing, removed link to master repo to avoid FIXME issue with link when initializing. These suggestions were based on a pull request initially done elsewhere swcarpentry/shell-novice#639

Close #186
