Prepare update for AASTeX export to include author initial in the in-text citation, e.g. “Accomazzi, A. et al.(2022)” #252

We are told that AASTeX will been updated to require in-line citations to include the author initials.

For example, instead of:

\bibitem[Accomazzi et al.(2022)]{2022BAAS...54b.019A} Accomazzi, A., Bouquin, D., D'Abrusco, R., et al.\ 2022, \baas, 54, 2022n2i019. doi:10.3847/25c2cfeb.c71aa342

we should output:

\bibitem[Accomazzi, A. et al.(2022)]{2022BAAS...54b.019A} Accomazzi, A., Bouquin, D., D'Abrusco, R., et al.\ 2022, \baas, 54, 2022n2i019. doi:10.3847/25c2cfeb.c71aa342

I think we can keep this on hold until we see specific instructions from AAS, since this new formatting isn't yet reflected in the online documentation https://journals.aas.org/aastexguide/

@august_fly do I have this right and what is the timeline for the change?
