Main improvements in this PR:

Documentation:
- Clarify PR merging strategies to develop (squash-merge) and main (merge commit) in Contributor guidelines.
- Change PR template to nudge towards using the correct PR merging strategy.
- Instruct in Contributor guidelines to increment version.txt with each release.

I hereby confirm that I have:

[x] Selected develop as a target branch (top left drop-down menu)

Clear directions NOT to use "Squash and merge" between develop and main should prevent confusing PRs like #340, which contains many commits that were already included in the previous release as well.
