adding citation cff

[jt14den]

Adding CITATION.cff, machine readable citation, see: https://carpentries.org/blog/2024/07/lesson-cffs/. I only added authors with content commits from last 12 month, so we could need to go further back.

We should also adjust what we add to the README and other places. See https://github.com/carpentries/lesson-development-training for how this integrates with GH.

What does this mean?

If you have source files that require output and figures to be generated (e.g. R Markdown), then it is important to make sure the generated figures and output are reproducible.

This output provides a way for you to inspect the output in a diff-friendly manner so that it's easy to see the changes that occur due to new software versions or randomisation.

Awesome, thanks for getting this moving @jt14den! I'm flagging @tobyhodges for input, since he helped me generate the readme citation from our official Zenodo release. That process also generated a Zenodo json file that includes the full list of past/present contributors. Guessing we'd want to leverage that to update a full .cff file?

@chennesy thanks, I should have renamed the CITATION to CITATION.cff and included existing authors. This is what I'm started doing on other lessons I'm working on. See https://github.com/carpentries/lesson-development-training/blob/main/CITATION.cff. @tobyhodges, would be good to hear what you think.

@tobyhodges can you give us some guidance on how this should work? I'm eager to implement in the LC
