[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/3] introduce maintainers (branch yem/maintainers)

Hello All!

This small series introduces the notion of maintainers.

We introduce a top-level MAINTAINERS file, not unlike the Linux kernel,
but sorted by people rather than topics; more than one person may
register as maintainer for a specific topic. Topics are patterns that
refer to any file or directory in the tree; see the first patch and the
content of MAINTAINERS for how it is formatted.

We also introduce a script to help find a maintainer for a pacakge or an
architecutre, which can get its input via:
  - command-line arguments '-p PKG' or '-a ARCH',
  - an autobuild result "-b SHA1" or "-b URL",
  - a patch on stdin.

And I added myself as a maintainer for some stuff.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
