[Buildroot] More maintainers

Hello;

Angelo and I were discussing the state of patches today in regards to Buildroot.
It seems like the project could benefit from a few more maintainers of
the project.
We both understand that this is a volunteer project and that we are
all adults and have a life outside of the project, and as such, we
can't expect instant reviews on every submitted patch. However, as the
project continues to grow in popularity, more patches will continue to
be offered at an ever-increasing rate. This popularity increase is
excellent news for the project, but also comes at the cost of more
time and effort in regards to the number of patches and fixes in the
queue to review and test.

As such, we would both like to throw our hat in the ring to help
maintain the project. We both don't have all the time in the world,
but any amount of help on the project can help alleviate the primary
maintainers.

Let me know what you think.

Adam
