This PR focuses on updating and formatting the contributors quick start guide. As a new experimenting contributor, I had some troubles when I worked with the quick start guide, some commands that didn't work because of outdated packages, some instructions were unclear etc. Addressing major changes I did: 1. Moving down the installation of the `docker compose plugin`: If we already have a section that is dedicated to the installation of docker compose, then commands that are relevant to its installation should be there, and not in a section that is dedicated to the installation of purely docker. 2. Sqlite -> sqlite3: according to the [Ubuntu package repository](https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=sqlite), the package `sqlite` is available only on `focal` and `jammy` Ubuntu distribution codenames. This means that the command `sudo apt install sqlite` will not work with any distributions beyond other than these two (like oracular, noble etc.). As I see it, these are the options: a. Move to `sqlite3`. This would require performing tests, which I have - ran all the tests under the ./tests directory, which is probably not sufficient. b. Add a note excluding distributions other than focal and jammy to use sqlite3 instead. This means developing on machines with distributions other than these may lead to inconsistencies as a result of breaking changes between the versions unless compatibility checks are done. This is very likely larger than my PR, and the best course of action for now is probably to delay this change until a decision is made, I made the changes only to raise awareness. 3. Removing section describing pre-commit with uv (lines 466-479): this content was just duplicated with the few lines below it. There are more examples of this behavior, but they are less aggressive so I decided to leave them be. The other changes I made are mostly cosmetic. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
