Closes #41246 and #41244

What does this PR do?

Adds missing sections to the README:

  • Contributing Guidelines section with link to CONTRIBUTING.md and Code of Conduct
  • License section with link to LICENSE file

Adds:

  • Hacktoberfest 2025 banner to the top.

Why?

Makes the project more professional and contributor-friendly by following open-source best practices. These sections help new contributors understand how to get involved and clarify the project's licensing terms. It also allows Hacktoberfest participants to more easily understand that this repository is a part of Hacktoberfest.

Hi, I'm not sure we need any of this, I'm sorry! CONTRIBUTING.md and LICENSE.md are both standard paths, so I don't know if we need them in the README, and we don't really need the Hacktoberfest banner either.

Alright that makes sense. Although I do feel it would make it easier for people to check if this repo is part of hacktoberfest or not. Also, the CONTRIBUTING and LICENSE section makes the README complete. But I still understand what you're trying to say!
