bf72cdd748 contributor-guide: deprecate "Accepted" patch status
This is in accordance with the gatesgarth Release Notes:

  > In the ``Upstream-Status`` header convention for patches,
  > ``Accepted`` has | been replaced with ``Backport`` as these almost
  > always mean the same thing i.e. the patch is already upstream and
  > may need to be removed in a future recipe upgrade. If you are adding
  > these headers to your own patches then use Backport to indicate that
  > the patch has been sent upstream.

fbbe0f86ba contributor-guide: discourage marking patches as Inappropriate
It was never really clear what all those reasons really meant, and every
patch submitted upstream liftens the maintenance on the Yocto side.
So remove the current list, and replace it with two reasons in which an
upstream submission likely won't benefit the upstream project.

f06b171bee contributor-guide: recipe-style-guide: add section about CVE patches
This was previously included in the OpenEmbedded wiki page [1], but was
not ported along with the rest in commit 95c9a1e1e78bbfb82ade
(2023-09-12, Michael Opdenacker: "contributor-guide: recipe-style-guide:
add Upstream-Status").

  [1]: https://www.openembedded.org/index.php?title=Commit_Patch_Message_Guidelines&oldid=10935

Group the examples in their own sections (but name it differently from
any other section in this document so that sphinx doesn't generate a
warning about duplicate labels).

1c8f2d8cad contributor-guide/style-guide: Refer to recipes, not packages
Whilst often referred to as packages by people we should use the more
accurate term in documentation, 'recipe' instead of 'packages'.
