[PATCH 1/5] .mailmap: match up some obvious names/emails

This patch updates git's .mailmap in cases where multiple names are matched to a single email. The "master" name for each email was chosen by:

  1. If the only difference is in the presence or absence
     of accented characters, the accented form is chosen
     (under the assumption that it is the natural spelling,
     and accents are sometimes stripped in email).
  2. Otherwise, the most commonly used name is chosen.
  3. If all names are equally common, the most recently used name is
     chosen.

I'm cc-ing all involved authors. If you object or want to normalize your
name in some other way, please let me know.
