docs: add CONTRIBUTING.md with local dev setup guide for web and mobile #619

Description

@Nareshkumawat-star

What's Missing

The DevCard repo has no CONTRIBUTING.md. New contributors have no guide on how to set up the project locally, which platform uses which tech stack, or what the PR process looks like.

Proposed Sections

  1. Project overview: monorepo structure, what web, mobile, backend folders contain
  2. Prerequisites: Node.js version, Expo CLI, backend runtime
  3. Local setup: step-by-step clone → install → env vars → run for each platform
  4. Branch naming conventions: feat/, fix/, docs/
  5. PR checklist
  6. Issue labels guide

File to Create
