Merge #11276: [Docs] Update CONTRIBUTING.md to reduce unnecessary review workload

91c39e38d Update CONTRIBUTRING.md to reduce unnecesarry review workload (Jonas Schnelli)

Pull request description:

  The current workload for reviewing pull requests is relatively high and trivial, non-beneficial pull requests tend to slow down the overall development process.

  We may want to directly close trivial, non-beneficially pull requests during time of high pull request load.

  This PR would prepare for possible direct PR closing.

Project maintainers aim for a quick turnaround on refactoring pull requests, so
where possible keep them short, uncomplex and easy to verify.
Pull requests that refactor the code should not be made by new contributors. It
requires a certain level of experience to know where the code belongs to and to
understand the full ramification (including rebase effort of open pull requests).
Trivial pull requests or pull requests that refactor the code with no clear
benefits may be immediately closed by the maintainers to reduce unnecessary
workload on reviewing.
