Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate why `cargo tauri dev` fails to build `tonic` in debug mode while `cargo build` and ` release` work. The error 'failed to build archive: Operation not permitted' suggests a permission issue, possibly related to macOS sandboxing or code signing. Look into Tauri's dev build process (e.g., the `tauri` crate's build scripts, the linker flags used in debug mode) and compare with release mode. Additionally, check if the issue is specific to the `tonic` crate's use of procedural macros or static libraries. Review comments in the issue (#11860) for any diagnostic steps or suggestions from maintainers.
