We keep regressing in CONTRIBUTING.md. This time, it's starting to look like at least some contributors may not have been able to run drone tests since October 2018 (#6243). The last time we touched this was back in #4053, #4055, #4070, and #4071.

I think we need to:

Script the drone testing that we're asking contributors to run, including fetching the right version of the drone cli tool, as well as the command line for running it.
Change the instructions in https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md to ask people to just run that script.

~~Both of these are handled by #6305.~~

I've trimmed this issue; it originally included a suggestion that we run the script automatically at PR submission to ensure the script itself stays updated. If that gets done it should probably be handled as a separate discussion and/or project.

I've removed the script from PR #6305 -- if anyone is looking for it, you can grab a copy at https://github.com/stevegt/gitea/blob/drone-cli-bash/scripts/test-local.sh.

The script only runs on Linux and should be replaced with a go version for portability; I'll work on that if nobody else gets to it first.

Touching to make stale bot happy -- have been getting myself up to speed on go while working on another project; haven't forgotten about this.

Now we have used drone 1.x, so the CONTRIBUTING.md should also be updated again.

Now the development of Gitea doesn't need Drone, make works well.
