Move vouch requirement to top of CONTRIBUTING.md (#3029)

Browse Source 
Contributors need to be vouched before opening PRs, but this requirement
was buried far down in the document. This change:
- Adds mention of vouches in the intro paragraph
- Moves the "Getting vouched" section to right after the intro

This makes the requirement more visible to new contributors.

## Getting vouched (required before opening a PR)
We use [vouch](https://github.com/mitchellh/vouch) to manage contributor trust. **PRs from unvouched users are automatically closed.**
Before you open your first pull request, you need to be vouched by a maintainer. Here's how:
1. Open a [Vouch Request](https://github.com/triggerdotdev/trigger.dev/issues/new?template=vouch-request.yml) issue.
2. Tell us what you'd like to work on and share any relevant background.
3. A maintainer will review your request and vouch for you by commenting on the issue.
4. Once vouched, your PRs will be accepted normally.
If you're unsure whether you're already vouched, go ahead and open a PR — the check will tell you.
