feat: init charter

[evenstensberg]

This PR effectively adopts (and replaces) the current governance model of webpack with the new governance model, pending approval from the CPC (Cross Project Council) from the OpenJS Foundation.

This proposal was crafted together with the Cross Project Council and current maintainers of webpack.

This PR:

• Adds the CHARTER.md file

I believe we're ready, @tobie!

Some minor suggestions. Good to go otherwise. Congrats on all of the work done!

It seems that the election process is actually described in section 3 above, no?

Maybe move it here?

[ovflowd]

I don't see anything related to elections on section 3 🤔

[tobie]

Well, this is where you describe how TSC members are chosen, so that’s the closest you have to elections.

[ovflowd]

Let me see if I understood this correctly: you're asking for us to move this election sub-section to be part of section 3?

(The charter template on the CPC's repo mentions elections as part of section 4, that's why I added here) -- because there's no reference in section 3 of how someone becomes a TSC member.

LGTM

Could you let us know when we can merge this and begin bootstrapping the tsc?
