The amount of packages has more than tripled since this section was written.
Adjust the rebuild limits and cycle lengths based on current practices.
* doc/contributing.texi (Submitting Patches): Increase 'staging' rebuild limit
to 1800 packages, and adjust the cycle to six weeks. Increase 'core-updates'
cycle to six months.
