This PR includes:
- Removal of maintainers that are listed as author in the module
- Removal of entries that do not extend the original author list
- Move ignored-statement to namespace/directory (where useful)
- In some cases, fix the authors-list or add missing github id
We end up with a list of exceptions/additions and a large set of
namespace/directory maintainers or team of maintainers.
Some entries could be further improved by discussing with some
maintainers.
The current code flow precludes the use of the policy_path module
parameter that's documented. It's actually called policy_file in the
code.
What's worse is that the policy_file branch actually tries to open the
file named by the policy parameter, even though policy and policy_file
are marked as mutually-exclusive.
This change fixes the logic bug in policy_file and updates the
documentation to reference policy_file. The old parameter policy_path
is provided as an alias
