[clug] code of conduct

Experience in this area suggests a need to be very explicit about *who* to
contact -- further having a diversity of "whos", so that there's a
selection of trusted people to approach so that someone reporting can pick
the person they feel most comfortable bringing their matter too. The
opposite side of the same coin is that anonymous reporting doesn't get used
because of trust issues (note one of our worst offenders had deeply
integrated into the community so ymmv).

I mucked around with some wording, but 'tis locked. No merge-request for
me:

Clarity on what the repercussions were was another gotcha we experienced,
but that seems to be well covered here.
