Pierrick is maintaining the AWS GitLab runners

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

Hi,
Pierrick has volunteered to maintain the AWS GitLab runners that
QEMU's CI depends on for x86_64 jobs. I have given him access and
updated https://wiki.qemu.org/AdminContacts to reflect this.

Thanks, Pierrick, for helping with this!

I'll continue to handle the yearly Amazon sponsorship applications.

Thanks for the trust, I'll do my best to help with this right after
upcoming KVM Forum.

Do we have a fixed quota cap for our AWS usage, and if so, are we
at all close to that level with our current CI workload ? 

With regards,

QEMU requests a yearly allowance of $7,000. At the current usage rate
we have about 15% spare in case of spikes.

I will gather more detailed data and share it at QEMU Summit next week
and it will be sent out in the notes email afterwards.
