Issue Title: Add Contribution Guidelines Document (CONTRIBUTION.md)


Description: To enhance collaboration and streamline the contribution process for the Doctor's Appointment Web Application, we propose adding a CONTRIBUTION.md file. This document will serve as a comprehensive guide for contributors, outlining the steps and expectations for contributing to the project.

Objectives:

  1. Provide Clear Guidelines: The CONTRIBUTION.md file will specify how to contribute, including forking the repository, creating branches, and submitting pull requests.
  2. Outline Review Criteria: It will detail the criteria for pull request reviews to ensure consistency and quality in contributions.
  3. Encourage Best Practices: By outlining the expected code of conduct and collaborative practices, we aim to foster a positive and inclusive environment for all contributors.
  4. Future Enhancement Suggestions: The document will invite contributors to suggest future features or improvements, encouraging ongoing engagement with the project.
