Add a section on typo fixes and large PRs

Describe the enhancement or feature you would like

This came out of a discussion on Discord https://discord.com/channels/854719841091715092/867922302996734073/1296024336490037269 and recent PRs that typo fix the whole codebase.

The goal of this section is:

  • to clarify which directories in the CPython repo are suitable for typo fixes. (Docs, Internal Docs, and sometimes News)
  • encourage smaller reviewable PRs (good practice, easier for maintainers to review)
  • remind that large PRs unnecessarily notify large numbers of reviewers (respect for the time of others)
  • mention that large PRs with typo fixes in other directories will be closed and guidance to this section to be followed
  • set up contributors for future success and for tackling more timely issues/documentation
