Fence the complete setup sequence as shell code.

The # lines currently render as Markdown headings, and the commands render as ordinary paragraph text. Enclose the full sequence in a fenced sh block so it renders as one copyable shell block.

In @.github/CONTRIBUTING.md around lines 3 - 4, Update the setup command
sequence in the CONTRIBUTING documentation by wrapping all related comments and
commands in a single fenced sh code block, preserving the existing sequence and
making it copyable shell content.

Remove the four-space indentation from the section bodies.

The new headings are valid Markdown headings, but the paragraphs and lists below them still begin with four spaces. Markdown renders these bodies as code blocks. Remove the indentation under the affected headings, including the ranges at lines 58, 74, 85–87, and 95.

In @.github/CONTRIBUTING.md around lines 39 - 41, Remove the four-space
indentation from the body paragraphs and lists under the affected headings in
