governance files: CODEOWNERS, CONTRIBUTING.md, and GOVERNANCE.md

[andorsk]

Initial governance files of CODEOWNERS, CONTRIBUTING.md, and GOVERNANCE.md. Related to issues:

https://github.com/trustoverip/TechArch/issues/40 https://github.com/trustoverip/TechArch/issues/39 https://github.com/trustoverip/TechArch/issues/38 https://github.com/trustoverip/TechArch/issues/46

These files are important for designating the repository management of the repo. A couple things:

1. I will copy things to the wiki after, that being said, the source of truth is the repo, NOT the wiki. If things ever get out of alignment, the repo should be the single source of truth.
2. I highlighted a few areas which are interesting/need some review.

@a-fox can you take a look at this and give some feedback if possible.

[andorsk]

@talltree I'll copy the stuff over the wiki to make sure it's also documented there.

Based on a conversation with @a-fox , we discussed prioritizing the focus of this PR as the following:

1. Make it as easy as possible for non-tech/Git saavy people to contribute to the TechArch repository. This is covered in the documentation. In particular, make sure to check out the CONTRIBUTING.md file. This should be in a state to shared for feedback by tomorrow, and it’ll be good to hear the rest of the community on how they feel about it as it currently stands.
2. In a separate PR: @a-fox will explore new ways which we can make it even easier for people to contribute. @Antti Kettunen is leading that charge. He was going to try and make some proposals by Thursday.

@talltree @a-fox , please review the Governance and Contributing files, and review them to give feedback.

Maybe need to put the https://github.com/andorsk/TechArch/tree/governance#contributing into the CONTRIBUTING.md file

Note for the basic change flow ( non git loving users ), https://github.com/trustoverip/TechArch/blob/339dc1cf4bd0c7d226520dc963a1b9726937a020/CONTRIBUTING.md#basic-change-flow is where it’s documented.

To me, this is probably the highest priority to be sufficient before opening it up to the rest of the community, as this is where most the rubber will meet the road for a lot of people. @darrellodonnell can you please pay really close attention to this and see if the flow is reasonable for you and/or provide feedback if it's not satisfactory.

@talltree where should the video in the Video Walkthrough: https://github.com/trustoverip/TechArch/blob/339dc1cf4bd0c7d226520dc963a1b9726937a020/CONTRIBUTING.md#basic-change-flow be hosted?

[a-fox]

IMO this is ready for merge.
