OpenSSF documentation updates #2259
Description
As a technical initiative hosted within the OpenSSF, the project needs to participate in the TAC Project Lifecycle process and its Gives and Gets.
To do this we need to complete the submission process as outlined here in order to establish and document the project's lifecycle status with the TAC. Templates for submitting can be found here: https://github.com/ossf/tac/tree/main/process/templates, and examples of other projects' documents can be found here https://github.com/ossf/tac/tree/main/process/project-lifecycle-documents.
In addition to the TAC documentation, here are another couple of recommendations for this project for community documentation:
Consider adding a CONTRIBUTING.md file to the repository like this example.
Consider adding a MAINTAINERS.md file to the repository like this example or listing the maintainers in the readme or a contributing or governance file.
