Hi,

I would like to propose adding Jean Boussier (@byroot) as a committer. For years Jean has been doing great work with performance / memory optimizations, reporting and fixing bugs, as well as contributing features that really help real world applications.  I think he would make a great addition to the team.

Just to highlight some of his contributions:

* Pushing [this `Process.fork`](https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17795) forward which is a continuation of [this 10 year old ticket](https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/5446)
* Adding API wrt GC timing [here](https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10917)
* Providing easy repros for crashes [here](https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17984)
* Doing cross project work among Ruby's built-in libraries to reduce memory usage:
  * See 2de594ca98d95e62f7fcf000f21e174ac3f6fcaf
  * And 71344a1d63038aa30328f91a180efb486ae4c19a
  * And https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18148

Jean is great at sticking to things and seeing them through to completion, even if it takes an incredibly long time.  I think his skills and determination would make a great asset for our team.

Thanks!
