MAINT: add a .mailmap file for git

[grlee77]

This PR adds a git .mailmap file.

I only added the users who had:
1.) duplicate entries due to variant names and email addresses
2.) to resolve a GitHub ID to an actual name
Let me know if you think it should also have the remaining users without duplicate entries.

Visual inspection of the output of git shortlog -sne indicates that it seems to be working as expected locally. (The length of the shortlog decreases from 42 to 34 after this change and I don't see any more duplicates).

I'm not optimistic that adding this will fix the GitHub contributors page: some posts I read elsewhere indicated that GitHub itself doesn't use this file, but perhaps that could have changed in the meantime.

Another case of missing data from GitHub's contributors page:
@sciunto is actually the 7th highest contributor in number of commits (29) in the output of git shortlog -sne but doesn't show up on the contributors page on GitHub. I assume this is because the email address associated with the commits has spaces instead of @ or . in it. Assuming that was intentional, I didn't want to presume to add it here. Please let me know if you would like it to be there.

@0-tree: As a past contributor here, please provide your real name if you would like your contribution to be credited using it.
