Add a link to helpwanted issues on website

On the website can add a link to the following and explain that its starter issues we are looking for help doing. Could add this to the contributing page.

https://github.com/apache/fluo/labels/helpwanted

Could also use the same label on our other repos. Unfortunately, GitHub seems not offer "OR" so you can search for the "helpwanted" you created and the "help wanted" which typically exists by default. Neither does it make it support wildcards, so it's easy to search multiple repos, like apache/fluo*

This is the best I've got:
https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aapache%2Ffluo+repo%3Aapache%2Ffluo-recipes+repo%3Aapache%2Ffluo-bytes+repo%3Aapache%2Ffluo-website+repo%3Aapache%2Ffluo-yarn+repo%3Aapache%2Ffluo-docker+label%3Ahelpwanted+type%3Aissue+state%3Aopen&type=Issues&utf8=%E2%9C%93

I didn't realize there was an existing help wanted label. I can delete the label I created and tag things with that.

It doesn't really matter. GitHub auto-creates labels for "convenience", but I actually prefer labels without a space: it makes it easier to search without needing to use quotes. It's entirely up to you. I was just lamenting the lack of a more robust query language with patterns and boolean operators in GitHub issue searching.

Some repos had the auto-created label and some did not. I suppose its a matter of age. Either way they all need to be made consistent. I slightly prefer the default label over something custom because its a bit more standard.
