Gutenberg Props - WordPress 5.5

[whyisjake]

Previously:

• #5101 (WordPress 5.4)
• #4763 (WordPress 5.3)
• #4442 (WordPress 5.2)
• #3885 (WordPress 5.0)

Similar to the tickets above, we need to capture those who received props in Gutenberg and then ensure they're included in the 5.5 Credits API.

Here's the Google Doc for this release: ​https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1N4CQSFTuSxViTSmVWWfoV_LsLX4Dm4v-cPaSYKw4SJA/edit?usp=sharing

Here's the process I followed:

• git shortlog -sen 706923..1e095f > authors.log
• git log --format=" %(trailers:key=Co-authored-by)" 706923..1e095f > co-authored.log -i to parse out anyone that was noted in a Co-authored-by trailer.
• Manually merged the co-authors into the GitHub tab.
• Manually worked with folks to look up .org usernames.

There are still a few .org names missing from the GitHub tab, and the list needs to be combined.

@coffee2code or @dd32 Are you able to run some searches against the list of .org users that have linked their GitHub profiles, or for email matches to help complete the list?

@desrosj I've filled in the handful of Github users that I could - 2 from the Github linking, 2 automattic, and 17 w.org email matches.

[coffee2code]

I added 4 more Github users, and annotated most of the other missing assocations with their Github usernames and if they work for Automattic (a8m) association (5).

[dd32]

Based off Scotts notes, I went through and sync'd a bunch more of the a8c accounts. 6 unknown accounts left

Thanks for the help everyone! I plan to circle back to making this automated in #4447 after 5.5 is out. Hopefully this is the last ticket.

(I don't have the ability to mark a ticket as fixed).

For the trac tickets that have been created, I'm using this to get the full count.

git log --oneline 706923..1e095f | wc -l

Thanks, all! This is considered complete given the release of WP 5.5. Feel free to reopen if any props have been overlooked.
