Update top-level Git mailmap to normalize commit author variants #4026
Conversation
These updates aim to associate all commits from the same contributor to a single "First Name Last Name <email>" author line. The University of Dundee or the Glencoe Software email address are used as the canonical address for current employees of these institutions. For contributors with an executed CLA, the email address specified in the CLA is used as the canonical one.

This PR updates the top-level mailmap to normalise all historical Bio-Formats contributors and have a single canonical real name and email address per contributor. The following rules are used for the construction of the .mailmap file:
The .mailmap is constructed according to the official documentation using one of the two forms:
for mapping different email addresses and
for mapping different real names.
The unique list of commit authors can be generated and reviewing using
git shortlog -se
