Explain the release step on the contribute page
The 04 RELEASE card only stated the three-PMC-votes rule without saying
what a release involves or what it has to do with a contributor. It now
describes the candidate and dev-list vote briefly, notes that testing a
release candidate and voting is itself a contribution, and its chip
points to the [VOTE] threads on lists.apache.org instead of the
user-facing download page.

<h3>Ship it together</h3>
- <p>Releases require that at least three StormCrawler PMC members approve
the release.</p>
- <div class="chip-cluster"><a class="chip" href="{{ site.baseurl
}}/download/">DOWNLOAD →</a></div>
+ <p>Merged changes reach users through official ASF releases: a release
manager stages a candidate and the community votes on the dev list (at least
three binding PMC +1s). Testing a release candidate and voting is a
contribution too.</p>
