[issue6992] Adding a Contributor field in PEP 314

Too complicated. I think any who significantly contributed to some 
package is an author. Maintainer is the one who does the goodness of 
making this package available to other systems through PyPi.

{{{
authors = [
  'Anatoli <email at here>',
  'Tarek <email at here>'
]
}}}

<email at xxx> part is optional. Simple, intuitive, readable and easy 
enough to parse. The same for maintainers. There is no need for 
complicated role management - let's leave this for extensions. At the 
moment the real problem is to give attribution to several people at once 
in Pythonic way. =)
