[docs][recipes] Sourcing from Contentful

[marcysutton]

Summary

To improve key learning workflows in the Recipes section of the docs, there should be an actionable recipe on sourcing from Contentful that comes after the recipes on sourcing Markdown pages and blog posts and sourcing from Wordpress. This is also related to the Contentful workflow evaluation in #13945.

This recipe should show how to use the gatsby-source-contentful plugin to source content from Contentful inline as concisely as possible. Showing how the data layer can be inspected with GraphiQL would help understanding. The docs page on Sourcing from Contentful can be used as a starting point: https://www.gatsbyjs.org/docs/sourcing-from-contentful/

Recipes now follow this format:

• Requirements or prerequisites
  • This would include setting up a Contentful site, to keep the scope of the recipe limited to Gatsby-related tasks
• Step-by-step instructions
• Relevant links to any relevant information
  • Building a Site with React and Contentful: https://www.gatsbyjs.org/blog/2018-1-25-building-a-site-with-react-and-contentful/
  • More on Sourcing from Contentful: https://www.gatsbyjs.org/docs/sourcing-from-contentful/
  • Link to a live example

This recipe should go into a new section of docs/docs/recipes.md titled "Sourcing Content" (if it hasn't already been created). There is a recipe template in the contributing docs, including tips on adding a new section: https://www.gatsbyjs.org/contributing/docs-templates/#recipes

For reference, the new recipe collection is also listed in a spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yNUQi_-3TsuDtE98hCIJQvLZ6X1YHlDmC-EJwOGxiHk/edit#gid=1252007048

Hey @marcysutton!
If this still needs help, can I work on it?

Sorry, @mehtavishwa30, just saw your comment after I did the PR.
