Recently, a user contributed a pull request for Accumulo to add
.github/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md
I can see this being useful so that the ASF Code of Conduct is
presented in the GitHub UI. However, I don't think every project needs
to do this.

I propose ComDev work with INFRA to create
https://github.com/apache/.github repository to host such common
files, as described in
https://github.blog/changelog/2019-02-21-organization-wide-community-health-files/
; projects can, of course, override these default files.

The main annoyance I think is that it wouldn't quite fit the normal
repository naming convention, so it would have to be a special case.
I'm proposing this here, because I think ComDev might be the most
appropriate "owner" of the content of that repository.

Initially, it could just include a `.github/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md` file
that contains the same content as
https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct
Other files, like `.github/SUPPORT.md` can be added later if there's
something appropriate to put there.

An example in action: https://github.com/revelc/.github/tree/main/.github

Thoughts?
