🔧 Repository: Expand governance on community-plugins maintainers

[04kash]

📜 Description

As discussed in the SIG, we need explicit guidelines on how to transition from a plugin owner to a plugins maintainer within the community-plugins repository.

Here are some suggested criteria to include:

• Must be an approved plugin owner.
• Provide links to examples of PR reviews from other workspaces and codeowners.
• Showcase links to work done that helps maintain or improve workflows and tooling.

👍 Expected behavior

We have explicit guidelines on how to transition from a plugin owner to a plugins maintainer within the community-plugins repository

👎 Current Behavior

We don't have explicit guidelines on how to transition from a plugin owner to a plugins maintainer within the community-plugins repository

Being active in the Backstage repo itself as well as running a Backstage instance at an Organization would be really helpful to have. I would personally weigh these things higher than what is noted in this issue description.
