docs: replace AUTHORS.md with GitHub contributors link#4582
Merged
Conversation
AUTHORS.md was a manually maintained list of 400+ contributors that had no automation to keep it current. Replace it with a link to GitHub s built-in contributors page which is always up-to-date. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
