Why
The filtering code provides us a nice level of flexibility in adding new features. As a tradeoff, it's now harder to understand
What
Added a markdown document to describe the key parts of the architecture of how we sort and filter contributions for display in the Vue.js code. The description here should be fairly accurate for both the current code base and the proposed changes in #546
