Cleans up CONTRIBUTING.md to push even more information into the online/rendered documentation
Improves the makefile error provided when the submodules are missing (similar to https://github.com/stan-dev/cmdstan/pull/1217)
Added a makefile target to format all code
Made the .pylintrc in python/ a bit more useful for our project (we still don't enforce this anywhere)

Sorry--I didn't see @roualdes approving this or I wouldn't have added other picky comments (though I would still prefer to see the syntax of what's included in links be a noun).
