Refresh outdated contributor setup instructions #638

@cvanelteren

Description

@cvanelteren

docs/contributing.rst still contains a few stale references that no longer match the current repository state, including main vs master, py.test, Python 3.7, PyPi, and a small typo in the test section anchor.

This issue is intentionally scoped for newcomers to the project. It is low complexity, mostly confined to one documentation file, and should help someone get familiar with the contribution workflow and repo conventions.

Suggested scope:

  • update branch references from master to main
  • replace outdated test command and Python version references with the current workflow
  • fix obvious typos and stale capitalization in the same file

Acceptance criteria:

  • the contributor guide matches the current repo state
  • the docs still build cleanly after the edits
  • the issue remains a small documentation-only change
