docs: add maintainer entry profile for XFS
Create a new document to list what I think are (within the scope of XFS) our shared goals and community roles. Since I will be stepping down shortly, I feel it's important to write down somewhere all the hats that I have been wearing for the past six years.
Also, document important extra details about how to contribute to XFS.

vfio-pci: Provide reviewers and acceptance criteria for variant drivers
Device specific extensions for devices exposed to userspace through the vfio-pci-core library open both new functionality and new risks. Here we attempt to provided formalized requirements and expectations to ensure that future drivers both collaborate in their interaction with existing host drivers, as well as receive additional reviews from community members with experience in this area.

Maintainer Handbook: Maintainer Entry Profile
As presented at the 2018 Linux Plumbers conference [1], the Maintainer Entry Profile (formerly Subsystem Profile) is proposed as a way to reduce friction between committers and maintainers and encourage conversations amongst maintainers about common best practices. While coding-style, submit-checklist, and submitting-drivers lay out some common expectations there remain local customs and maintainer preferences that vary by subsystem.
The profile contains documentation of some of the common policy questions a contributor might have that are local to the subsystem / device-driver, special considerations for the subsystem, or other guidelines that are otherwise not covered by the top-level process documents.
The initial and hopefully non-controversial headings in the profile are:
Overview: General introduction to how the subsystem operates
Submit Checklist Addendum: Mechanical items that gate submission staging, or other requirements that gate patch acceptance.
Key Cycle Dates: - Last -rc for new feature submissions: Expected lead time for submissions - Last -rc to merge features: Deadline for merge decisions
Resubmit Cadence: When and preferred method to follow up with the maintainer
Note that coding style guidelines are explicitly left out of this list.
See Documentation/maintainer/maintainer-entry-profile.rst for more details, and a follow-on example profile for the libnvdimm subsystem.
