Andrew Vaillancourt 1b9396a2c6 Enforce docstring standards and update pre-commit
- Enforce Google-style docstrings in pre-commit hooks:
  - Add pydocstyle, pydoclint, and interrogate to Pipenv and pre-commit
  - Configure pydocstyle for PEP 257 and Google-style compliance
  - Set pydoclint to enforce function signature correctness
  - Ensure 100% function and class docstring coverage with interrogate:
    - There are some exceptions, e.g. init, module-level.
    - More exceptions can be added if the tooling is found to be too
      strict.

- Refine Black hook ordering to ensure all hooks run on formatted files:
  - Fail commit if formatting is needed (--check)
  - Auto-format files in a separate step
  - Prevent bypassing docstring checks by staging unformatted files

- Ensure return type consistency (DOC203 best practices):
  - Require both return type hints (-> type) and docstring return types
  - Explain rationale for requiring both:
    - Type hints help with static analysis and runtime type checking
    - Docstring return types improve readability and documentation clarity
    - Pre-commit hooks validate consistency across both formats
  - Update pre-commit hooks to explicitly check for this requirement

- Restructure pre-commit and linting configuration:
  - Move .pydocstyle.ini, .flake8, and pyproject.toml to the root
  - Update pre-commit hooks to reference these configs in the new structure

- Modify tox.ini to prevent packaging errors and improve workflow:
  - Add `skipsdist = True` to disable setuptools packaging
  - Set `usedevelop = False` to prevent unintended package installation
  - Ensure `tox` only runs documentation and linting tasks
  - Aligns with StarlingX repository standards and prevents conflicts
  - Retain the pre-commit/ directory for potential future hooks

- Update documentation and improve contributor guidance:
  - Add CONTRIBUTING.rst with detailed contribution guidelines
  - Create contributors.rst in doc/source for Sphinx-rendered docs
  - Link contributors.rst in index.rst for visibility in generated docs
  - Ensure contributing.rst references the latest CONTRIBUTING.rst
  - Document VSCode and PyCharm auto-doc settings in CONTRIBUTING.rst

This commit ensures consistent docstring enforcement, improves
pre-commit integration, aligns with best practices, and enhances
contributor documentation.

convention = google
# Ignored rules:
# D100 - Ignore missing module-level docstrings (unnecessary in structured frameworks)
# D107 - Ignore missing docstrings for __init__ methods (handled by interrogate)
# D200 - Allow multi-line docstrings instead of forcing one-liners (Google-style)
# D203 - Allow class docstrings to be directly under the class definition (Google-style)
# D212 - Allow function/method docstring summaries to start on the second line (Google-style)
# D213 - Allow class docstring summaries to start on the first line (Google-style)
