Fixes #7176

Why does this need a trailing slash but the https://github.com/notaryproject/notation one above doesn't?

Comment thread CONTRIBUTING.md
This repo uses [becheran/mlc](https://github.com/becheran/mlc) to automatically validate markdown
links in the [check-markdown-links](.github/workflows/check-markdown-links.yml) workflow. You can
run it locally using the container image:
`becheran/mlc@sha256:1248f4e0da11cec8f80d644a8efe0106a85210ef63c8b186802ac7332bcfb090` (v1.2.0).
