Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the issue comments and linked PRs for context. Examine the existing codebase to understand how requests are made and how responses are processed. Investigate how dirsearch currently handles custom scripts or if there is any plugin architecture. Define a clear specification for the 'dirsearch scripts' feature, including how users can write and integrate scripts. For the wordlist feature, analyze the directory structure and propose a naming convention.
