[RFC] Add a .mailmap to map pre-git-conversion authors to friendly names

Add a .mailmap file so 'git shortlog' can map the unfriendly
pre-git-conversion author entries to real names.

I've had this kicking around in my working tree for a while, but it seems
like it's more generally useful. Opinions?

...nobody cares at all either way? (in which case we should commit

Oh, I just missed it since it didn't have [PATCH] in the header.  I'd be happy 
to apply this.

I like the idea in general.

You should probably at least cc (if not get acks from) all the persons
listed above.
Anthony is using two; Andrzej four and a different one lately.
