Add a "Contributing" section to README with patch submission guidelines For the CubicWeb project and its dependencies, we now prefer patches submission and review by email on a public mailing list. We are thus moving away from the previous vcreview-based workflow taking place on the forge. This change is motivated by the following points: - the current reviewer assignment mechanism (pick a random reviewer, rely on reviewer availability rather than on willingness to review, send related patches to distinct people, etc.) is inefficient if not counter-productive; - most of the times, discussion only happens between the patch submitter and a reviewer with no easy way to increase the audience; - cubicweb-vcreview has no concept of patch series; - cubicweb-vcreview is not actively maintained anymore and its usability keeps deteriorating. We expect that email-based submission and review of patches will circumvent these limitations. Anybody interested in the project is welcome to subscribed to the mailing list and participate to the review process. This patch documents the basic workflow of patches submissions by email.

[cwctl] do only clean static data dir content (closes #17069762) deleting the directory itself is useless and may be a problem in automated deployment environments (user may not have permissions to delete or create that directory).

[cwctl] add a no-config-update option to the upgrade command (closes #17069607)

[cwconfig] Add "pyramid" config type to MCOMPAT dict I don't know what this is for exactly, but the accept_mode method below queries this dict with the configuration type name. And if the latter is "pyramid", it crashes since there's no key in MCOMPAT dict. So add one with the same value as "all-in-one". This code is called during "upgrade" migration in particular.

[pyramid] Avoid shutting down the repository at exit if it's already shutting down For install `cubicweb-ctl pyramid` command will explicitly call `repo.shutdown()` so the atexit hook is redundant. Prevent the latter to be executed when the repository is already shutting down (otherwise one gets an assertion error).

[server/test] Extract a "ldapsource" function in unittest_ldapsource.py We will add more use of this pattern in forthcoming changesets, so avoid repetition.

[server] Move "system" source initialization into its own method

[entities] Make CWSource's dictconfig method clearer

[entities] Move CWSource update_config method as a function in 3.15 migration script This script is the only caller of this method. In the code of the function, drop "skip_unknown" argument and continue accordingly upon OptionError.

[server/test] Turn "pull" method of LDAPFeedTestBase into a staticmethod Because it does not use reference to "self" (which should be "cls" for classmethod).
