Subject: [PATCH] MAINTAINERS: add namespace entry

Namespace maintainership has never been formalized which has led to confusion
when people need to determine where to send patches and who should take a look
at them. Especially, since we have a dedicated list
containers.lists.linuxfoundation.org already for a long time. In preparation of
this patch I added the containers.lists.linuxfoundation.org mailing list to be
archived on lore.

This will not just make it easier to catch and review patches specific to
namespaces and containers but also for changes not specifically touching
namespaces but which nevertheless will have impact on namespaces and
containers.

Add an entry for Eric (who agreed to this) and me and add a first batch of
files that are relevant. Currently, only a small set of files are added and
only such namespaces that haven't gotten a separate maintainers entry (e.g.
time namespaces). I expect this to grow more entries and/or regular expressions
over time. For now these entries here are sufficient. I intend to route this
patch upstream soon.
