[chore][CONTRIBUTING.md] Add goleak to new component requirements (#3…

…1689)

**Description:** 
The goal is for `goleak` to be required for every package, and also to
be [generated by
mdatagen](#30483).
Once this is generated by `mdatagen` we'll be able to remove this from
manual steps done by the user, but for now it would be good to state the
it's required in docs.

**Link to tracking Issue:** #30438
