Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing Telegram plugin code (likely in mqttwarn/plugins/telegram.py) to understand how text messages are sent via the Telegram Bot API. Identify the method used for sending messages and explore the python telegram bot library documentation for how to send photos. Modify the plugin to accept an image file path or URL as an optional parameter and call the appropriate send photo method.
