32165	Add pre-commit Hooks	David Smith	David Smith	"To add support for pre-commit hooks via [https://pre-commit.com/ pre-commit]. Specifically, I propose to add the flake8 and isort hooks, with appropriate guidance added to the contributing docs. 

The aim is to reduce the number of PRs opened where a 'simple' lint error needs to be fixed, and in doing so we end up running the whole test suite at Jenkins twice. I appreciate this won't stop all instances as folk will have an extra step to install them; however, I think even if it stops the occasional occurrence the addition will be worthwhile.
