Closes #425. New contributors had no reference for which environment variables are needed to run the client locally, what each does, or where to get the values. This documents all of them.

Changes
.env.example — added a one-line description comment for every variable, removed the duplicate VITE_BACKEND_URL and UTM blocks, and grouped variables into Required (defaults provided) vs Optional sections with a copy-to-.env header.
CONTRIBUTING.md — added an Environment variables section that:
explains the VITE_ prefix convention and points to src/utils/env.utils.ts as the validation source of truth
tables out required vs optional variables with descriptions
documents where to source testnet RPC URLs (Base Sepolia public endpoint, Alchemy/Infura/Chainlist for Sepolia, local Anvil)
updated the local setup steps to use cp .env.example .env and link to the new section

Acceptance criteria
Every variable in .env.example has a description comment
Contributor guide explains required vs optional vars
Testnet RPC URL source is documented

- Rewrite .env.example with a one-line description for every variable
  and remove duplicate entries; group into required vs optional
- Add an 'Environment variables' section to CONTRIBUTING.md covering
  required vs optional vars and where to source testnet RPC URLs
