[RFC PATCH] MAINTAINERS: add HFS/HFS+ maintainers

[RFC PATCH] MAINTAINERS: add HFS/HFS+ maintainers

[Viacheslav Dubeyko]

Both the hfs and hfsplus filesystem have been orphaned since at least
2014, i.e., over 10 years. However, HFS/HFS+ driver needs to stay
for Debian Ports as otherwise we won't be able to boot PowerMacs
using GRUB because GRUB won't be usable anymore on PowerMacs with
HFS/HFS+ being removed from the kernel.

This patch proposes to add Viacheslav Dubeyko and
John Paul Adrian Glaubitz as maintainers of HFS/HFS+ driver.
