The zh_TW translation has been unmaintained for about two years: the
listed maintainer has been unreachable, and because no active
maintainer was listed, get_maintainer.pl did not point contributors at
anyone who could actually pick up a patch. My own zh_TW patch sat on
the list for five weeks for exactly that reason.

Following the discussion in [1] and the plan in [2], list the people
who have stepped up to carry zh_TW forward, with a shift in focus
towards Taiwanese Mandarin terminology rather than a plain
simplified-to-traditional conversion.

Move Hu Haowen to CREDITS and drop his personal repository links,
which are no longer reachable. The current translation is built on his
work, but MAINTAINERS is a list of who to contact, and the listed
address has not answered zh_TW mail for about two years, which is what
made zh_TW hard to contribute to in the first place.

zh_TW stays a separate entry and is maintained separately from zh_CN;
the two may share a tree for pull requests, but the review and
terminology work is independent.

Changes in v2:
 - Drop Hu Haowen's M: entry (Jonathan Corbet); a CREDITS patch will
   follow separately.
 - Move the division of responsibilities below --- as suggested by
   Weijie: it will drift over time, and a commit message is the one
   place it cannot be updated.
 - Collected Weijie's Acked-by.

Current split of work, for the record rather than for the git history:

  Chen-Yu Yeh   - translation and zh_TW terminology decisions
  Weijie Yuan   - miscellaneous matters, list monitoring, status reports
  Dongliang Mu  - review

The address in the CREDITS entry is the one Hu Haowen asked to be
listed under in [3].

Sorry I forgot to mention this in v1, somehow I'm not sure whether we
have a strict trailer rule towards this one or not:

Do we need to change the "[1] [2]" into two "Link:" ?

I remember that some subsystems have strict rules for this. If
Jon thinks it's okay, then it's okay.

For the content of the patch:

It's fine, no need to make changes.
