docs(maintainers): introduce Code Owner and Reviewer maintainer types (#27010)
Split the maintainer role into two types to make it easier to grow the
bench without asking new contributors to commit to a specific component
up front. Code Owners keep their existing scoped responsibility for a
category, while Reviewers help across the project without ownership of
any specific area. Both are full maintainers, share the @PX4/dev-team
GitHub team, and have the same write access and voting rights.

Rename the Active Maintainers table to Code Owners with no change to
the current roster. Add an empty Reviewers table so future nominations
land in their own PRs. Update the contributor docs to describe the two
types, cover both in the recruitment and onboarding flow, and note the
promotion path from Reviewer to Code Owner.

Maintainers

PX4 is maintained by a group of contributors trusted to steward the project. All maintainers listed below are members of the @PX4/dev-team, have write access, and participate in maintainer decisions. We recognize two types: Code Owners, responsible for specific components, and Reviewers, who help across the project without a fixed component.

See the documentation on Maintainers to learn about the role of the maintainers and the process to become one.
