Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing gather/scatter operations in the codebase, identify the relevant code paths, and determine where bounds checking can be inserted. Review issue #4529 for context on typical failures. Then design an opt in mechanism, such as a compile time flag or runtime option, to enable bounds checks during debugging.
