Parses CHANGES.txt to identify contributors
This script can be used to list contributors as indicated in CHANGES.txt so that we can easily thank them in our release notes.
I tested it on 9.6 and I'm happy with the results! Added them to: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SOLR/ReleaseNote9_6_0
Ideally we incorporate this into the Release Wizard.
Unlike a Git log, CHANGES.txt has cleaner data and can be edited if we see a formatting or spelling glitch. For better or worse (?), it doesn't have more trivial changes that were not worthy of CHANGES.txt.

If you make an effort to get it into wizard, I can try help if you get stuck..
I don't actually know Python (producing this script with ChatGPT). I looked at the release wizard script, which is almost 2k lines and I'm simply out of my depth to be honest.
