More climpred maintainers

[aaronspring]

Currently we have:

• 2 pypi maintainers, 0 of which are very active
• a few maintainers of climpred and https://github.com/conda-forge/climpred-feedstock
• no active development

I would recommend to at least give more people pypi access to push releases (pypi access required for conda releases?).
@Zeitsperre: may I add you to climpred's pypi?

Anyone else?

We are actively looking for new contributors for climpred! Riley moved to McKinsey's Climate Analytics team as a climate software engineer. Aaron moved to XING as a data scientist. We especially hope for python enthusiasts from seasonal, subseasonal or weather prediction community. In our past coding journey, collaborative coding, feedbacking issues and pull requests advanced our code and thinking about forecast verification more than we could have ever expected. Feel free to implement your own new feature or take a look at the good first issue tag in the issues. If you are interested in maintaining climpred, please ping us.

I was very afraid that my pypi account was linked to my now expired academic email, but it wasnt.

@aaronspring That's fine for me! Climpred is part of my company's software stack, so being able to push fixes when they are needed is really handy. I also enjoy maintaining software, so that helps, haha
