Allow more maintainers to grant credit

People who review projects and receive credit on fixed issues are nonetheless not getting credit for it on their profiles nor, for affiliated organizations, in Marketplace rank. If such credit were shown gisle and klausi , for example, would have hundreds of credits for the Project Application project this year— or at least the dozens i've credited to them. Instead the Project Application project doesn't count towards anyone's issue credits, which certainly isn't helping the ongoing crisis of unreviewed or underreviewed applications. Clearly, klausi and gisle do the nearly-thankless (thanks!!!) work anyway, but credit should be given where credit is due, and it might provide others with a little extra motivation. (Companies! Application review is a great way to learn, and perhaps soon junior dev time directed there will also translate into marketplace rank.)

Solution

Broaden access to assign credit to everyone with “Maintain issues” maintainership of a project, in addition to “Write to VCS”.
