ensures that anyone who comes across the API has someone to contact and get
more information. To fix: Ensure `contact` is present and non-empty at each
matching location. This rule is evaluated at the JSONPath `$.info` — inspect
every location it matches and correct only what violates the rule. Make the
smallest change that satisfies the rule, leave all unrelated content, key
order, comments, and formatting unchanged, and keep the document valid
OpenAPI. Return only the complete corrected document, with no commentary."
