Lint with pre-commit (#7900)

Following [my comment here](https://github.com/encode/django-rest-framework/pull/7589#issuecomment-813301322) and [Django's own move to pre-commit](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/writing-code/coding-style/#pre-commit-checks).

* Add pre-commit config file to run flake8 and isort.
* Add extra "common sense" hooks.
* Run pre-commit on GitHub actions using the [official action](https://github.com/pre-commit/action/). This is a good way to get up-and-running but it would be better if we activated [pre-commit.ci](https://pre-commit.ci/), which is faster and will auto-update the hooks for us going forwards.
* Remove `runtests.py` code for running linting tools.
* Remove `runtests.py --fast` flag, since that would now just run `pytest -q`, which can be done with `runtests.py -q` instead.
* Remove tox configuration and requirements files for linting.
* Update the contributing guide to mention setting up pre-commit.

+You can check your contributions against these conventions each time you commit using the [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) hooks, which we also run on CI.
