this PR fixes multiple broken :ghuser: links in the whatsnew contributor lists.
several GitHub usernames were returning 404 errors and causing linkcheck failures.

Fix:

  • Removed invalid :ghuser: roles while preserving contributor names
  • No code or API changes

this cleans up documentation and resolves broken external links.

fixes #2489

Not all of these usernames need to be deleted. Some include typos or just need to be updated if the user changed their username.
Some investigation (quick googling...) needs to be done to check each of these

* Adam R. Jensen (:ghuser:`AdamRJensen`)
* Ioannis Sifnaios (:ghuser:`IoannisSifnaios`)
* Will Holmgren (:ghuser:`wholmgren`)
* Sophie Pelland (:ghuser:`solphie-pelland`)
