Use standardized maintainer metadata property value
The `maintainer` property of the library.properties metadata file defines the entity responsible for maintenance of the library. In the libraries that are under Arduino's maintainership, it is standard practice to set the `maintainer` property to the general purpose value "Arduino <[email protected]>". Previously, instead of that standard value, this library's `maintainer` property defined a specific developer as the maintainer. This is prone to "bit rot", as the scope of each individual's work may change over time. It is unlikely that an individual developer team member will remember to update the metadata values at such time as they are no longer able to dedicate themselves to maintaining the library. So the metadata is changed to use the standard value.
