Slicing up this original governance PR: https://github.com/neoforged/governance/pull/20

The parts that made it to this PR while being NeoForge project specific are:

  • the rules on c tags
  • respecting maintainer request change comments on PRs
  • our breaking change timeframe we hope to achieve are a target goal but understand it cannot always be met.

Additional info added:

  • How to skip triggering neoforge releases on pr merges
  • What backport labels do

This will help contributors and new maintainers to get up to speed on NeoForge a bit faster now

Can we also include that all new c tags added to Neo get javadocs explaining what the tag is for? A common tag without documentation is hard to use unless you know the other mods using it.

@KnightMiner i want to say no because documentation is more of a general given for all PRs. This is more of about the deal we have with fabric that is easy to miss
