Docs: remove unneeded author attributions (#145002)

These directives are not maintained and misleadingly indicate individual
rather than community ownership.

See python/docs-community#180 for discussion,
and python/devguide#1740 for an update to the
devguide.

Also ensured that everyone is in the Misc/ACKS file.
