This add a new file Porting/exclude_contrib.txt to hold a list
of base64 SHA-256 digests of the user name and email who should be
excluded.
This adds the options
--exclude-me
--exclude-contrib=NAME_AND_EMAIL
--exclude-missing
to add exclusions in different ways. --exclude-me uses the git
credentials for the current user, --exclude-contrib expects a name
and email, and --exclude-missing excludes someone who is missing from
the change log.
When excluding someone their name will be removed from AUTHORS if it is
already listed, and the relevant entries to .mailmap will be removed,
and if necessary additional exclusion entries will be added for any of
their old identities which were mentioned in .mailmap.
This feature will be used in a later patch to resolve GH issue #20010.
