I feel like adding a review guide is an excellent idea.

A single file with 2 headings may be better than seperate CONTRIBUTING.md
and REVIEWING.md files, especially given the amount of duplicated
information between the two proceedures.

Notably, the "Fast formal checks" section of the draft review guide closely
mirrors the "Pull Request Guidelines / Commit guidelines" in
CONTRIBUTING.md (and in many ways is better - having some justification for
certain requirements that may seem arbitrary on the surface is a definite
plus. Given the similarity of these two sections, perhaps they could be a
combined section for both contributing and reviewing?

Slightly off topic, but concerning the note about community modules - is
there any checks we can enforce when a community module gets promoted to a
regular module? I get the feeling that this has caused some issues with
lower quality code making its way into geoserver without a proper review
(Am I right in thinking that whenever a community module does get promoted
to core, it is usually sufficiently large that it is hard to enforce such
guidlines whithout substantial work from both the reviewer(s) and the
contributor(s)).
