Fence the setup commands.

The unindented commands render as ordinary Markdown paragraphs. Markdown can merge git clone ... and cd marches into one line. Lines beginning with # render as headings instead of shell comments. Wrap the complete setup sequence in a fenced sh block so contributors can copy each command safely.

Also applies to: 6-8, 12-14, 18-19

Use the Lean toolchain instead of guix develop. The repository has no Guix manifest or channel configuration. guix develop therefore cannot create the documented development environment. The repository documents elan and lake build as the supported setup path. Update the contributor instructions to use that path.

# Clone the repository is the nearest preceding heading, so ### Repository Structure skips ## and breaks the document outline. Change it to ## Repository Structure.

Restore one branch pattern per line.

The branch examples are split and merged across lines. test/what-added is joined to the previous example, and additions (P3) is detached from it. Put each complete pattern in a fenced block on its own line.
