Add update action to Porting/checkAUTHORS.pl
Fixes #17206
AUTHORS can now be updated by 'Porting/checkAUTHORS.pl' using
the new 'update' action.
Example: perl Porting/checkAUTHORS.pl --update --from=v5.31.6
The changes to the file AUTHORS is better read by ommitting whitespaces.
The changes to AUTHORS are the following:
- authors are sorted
- some emails changed to reflect the preferred email set in the <DATA> section
of checkAUTHORS.pl
When detecting a new author, we will list the GitHub account instead of the
email.
Anyone can replace his email by the GitHub account by directly editing AUTHORS
file.
Note that the <DATA> section has been adjusted to accomodate several
existing emails in the AUTHORS file to avoid selecting a different email.
'Hio' was listed twice and we preserved the preferred email address.
