#219 Add a "/suggest reviewers" feature

Taken from the TODO:

Add a new /suggest reviewers feature that will automatically generate a list of potential reviewers. An example script git-reviewers exists that could be used as a model.

In fact there are a few options:
1. git reviewers mentioned above
2. git contacts in contrib/contacts
3. git reviewers (another one)
4. git reviewers (a different one)
5. git related

and probably others as well...

Personnally I've tried 1, 2, 4 and 5 and usually 2 (git contacts) offers the most sensible result.

The sad thing is that it is in contrib/, i.e. it is not installed in any official Git package.

The good news is that GitGitGadget has a fairly up to date Git checkout available. While we cannot rely on the worktree (in fact, it has been a long-term plan of mine to turn this into a bare repository), we can easily call git -C <git-worktree> show upstream/master:contrib/contacts/git-contacts, write it to a local file and then call git --exec-path=. contacts.
