Under the new governance, we've facilitated one new Maintainer nomination/appointment so far (@domdomegg). This PR adds some rough guidelines as to the process folks can follow to nominate new maintainers.

Motivation and Context

Without these guidelines, it is unclear how to actually put forward and process a nomination. The alternative is to basically DM David and ask him to explain the desired process :)

The intent here is to provide an easy, well-paved way for folks to push forward nominations and expand Maintainer capacity. It does not introduce any new bureaucracy.

How Has This Been Tested?
