[csswg-drafts] [CONTRIBUTING]: how to make a "non-member patent licensing commitment"? (#6866)

SamB has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts:

== [CONTRIBUTING]: how to make a "non-member patent licensing commitment"? ==
Well, I'm a bit confused by this passage:
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/blob/f2e3f006d09bc6ce5b2d03be0abef47c98bd1408/CONTRIBUTING.md#L12-L13

I tried following the [W3C Patent Policy](https://www.w3.org/Consortium/Patent-Policy-20200915/) link just above that, but while they do define the term *licensing commitment* in <https://www.w3.org/Consortium/Patent-Policy-20200915/##spec-licensing-commitments>, the definition is a bit on the declarative side: it doesn't say anything about how to adequately record having made such a commitment.

[That's not why I was looking at the CONTRIBUTING file, though: I was actually hoping for information on how to preview edits without doing a PR.]

Well, CONTRIBUTING isn't a spec, but I didn't just make it up either.
