J William Piggott 7948117da5 Docs: move option naming to howto-contribute.txt
Creating and naming options is not done when writing usage().
A contributor may not even read howto-usage-function.txt, but
they should read howto-contribute.txt. So move option naming
and change information there.

J William Piggott 0928ca2b59 docs: update howto-contribute.txt
This patch does not change any wording or grammar. It
only shuffles the order of things and adds a table of
contents. For example: it moves coding related bullet
points into the Coding Style Chapter; it groups email
related Chapters together, and so fourth.

Sami Kerola 0c12134874 docs: add non-return function and if shorthand tips
Non-return functions should not be combined with `else' clause.

The if shorthands `var = e ? t : f;' need to fit to single line,
and if that does not look good use normal "if else" syntax.

Both tips are mentioned in email bellow.
