Add Scott Gerring as an Approver

[cijothomas]

I'd like to nominate @scottgerring as an Approver for the project. He has been helping with reviews/contributions for the last 2-3 months, and has expressed willingness to continue to help drive the project forward.

https://github.com/open-telemetry/community/blob/main/guides/contributor/membership.md#requirements-2
The "at least 10 substantial PRs" is not met, (?) largely due to others (including me) taking over implementing the PRs, after Scott helped drive design consensus. Happy to discuss more if there are concerns about not strictly meeting the "10 PR requirement.".

Edit: This is not an issue

Agreed. The number of PRs isn’t a concern - he’s been actively driving efforts to clarify the ambiguity around some of the important design and implementation decisions, which is crucial. His work should definitely take priority.

Just realized that the guideline says reviewer or author; hence, not an issue!

"Reviewer for or author of at least 10 substantial PRs "

Are we waiting on more approvals?

Are we waiting on more approvals?

I'd leave it open for 2 days to let other maintainers/approvers get a chance to review. If no objections, will merge tomorow.
