Summary
This PR adds a short developer page for people preparing an externally maintained FieldTrip extension. It explains when an extension may be a better fit than a direct core contribution, what a useful extension repository should contain, and what information to include when requesting a listing on the website.
It also links the new page from the existing Extensions and Contribute pages.
Context
This follows the direction discussed in fieldtrip/fieldtrip#2578: keeping self-contained external functionality discoverable, while making maintenance responsibility clear.
Validation
git diff --checkpyspelling/aspelland the Jekyll bundle are not installed in this environment.
