Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the structure of existing validators in internal/validators to understand the pattern. Implement the time validator following that pattern. Add unit tests in the same package. Create the time function in internal/functions, following existing function implementations. Register the new validator and function in registry.go. Add example documentation and update the docs table using 'make docs'. Finally, add an integration test in integration/main.tf.
