Summary:
Several changes here. The `Text.md` and `PixelRatio.md` files were appended to the autodocs during site generation. This seemed excessive for just two files, so I've just merged the content into the autodocs themselves. It should help us simplify the website generation process in the future.
I've also merged IssueGuidelines.md and PullRequestGuidelines.md into the Contribution/Maintainers guidelines to improve their visibility.
Finally, I renamed Help to Community in the nav bar.
Ran the website locally, and verified every page rendered as expected: the Community page, Contributing page, Maintainers page.

Summary:
I've noticed many pull requests are opened with a very short description that fails to explain the motivation behind the PR, and many more forego providing a test plan. With this PR, I am shortening the template in order to provide concise instructions that provide the essential steps above the fold in the "Open a pull request" composer window.
- We need people to open a PR against master, not stable. The exact reason for this is not important and providing an explanation takes away from other more important points.
- Test plans are essential, but their requirement appears below the fold in the current template.
- More PRs could use tests.
- Make a point of asking PR authors to follow up on CI test failures.
- The composer does not parse Markdown into HTML. Markdown is pretty readable as is, but using reference links instead of inline links should help with readability.
I observed that it will only display the first 8 lines of the PR template above the fold. Seeing t

Summary:
We've been getting a lot of documentation PRs opened against `0.29-stable`, `0.30-stable`, and so on, instead of `master`. This is because our doc site is also based on RN release cuts, so clicking on the "Edit on GitHub" links on a document will take you to the markdown source for that release branch instead of the latest doc on `master`.
See #9095 for an example of such a PR.
In this PR we edit the link to say View on GitHub. Though it may not prevent PRs from being opened against a release branch, removing the "Edit" CTA may help in this regard.

Summary:
**motivation**
Lots of people does not sure what to do after a PR.
common questions like:
* should I keep rebasing this PR to the latest master branch ?
* should I keep squashing all commits in a PR into single one?
This may clear it a bit and makes people less nervous 😱

Summary:Explain the **motivation** for making this change. What existing problem does the pull request solve?
> When vjeux [asked me how the documentation changes looked](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/6423#issuecomment-195608638), it wasn't obvious to me how to build and view them locally. So, I thought it might be a good idea to add instructions to the contributing document.
I was able to run the website locally when working on PR #6423 but am no longer able to now. I have since updated my local repo with a `git pull`. I've deleted the node_modules directories in both the root and website folders, rebuilding both. Still, I get the following error when I run `npm start` within the website directory (problem with the ES2015 compiling?)...
