Misc #21369: Propose Max Bernstein (@tekknolagi) as a core committer

## Proposal
I'd like to propose Max Bernstein (@tekknolagi) as a committer. He has a strong background in compilers, having previously worked on CPython/Cinder at Meta, and has demonstrated leadership in designing and optimizing ZJIT.

Given that he is leading the development of the ZJIT IR and has been making a lot of contributions, I believe he should be empowered to merge such changes himself.

I'll include his message below for reference:

## Max Bernstein's Message

I have been working on Ruby since December 2024. My main contributions so far have been to ZJIT:

* The high-level IR (HIR) data structures
  * The IR
  * The type lattice https://github.com/Shopify/zjit/pull/19
* Transforming YARV bytecode into HIR
* Optimization on HIR, such as
  * Type inference https://github.com/Shopify/zjit/pull/23
  * Constant folding https://github.com/Shopify/zjit/pull/74
  * Direct calls https://github.com/Shopify/zjit/pull/84
  * Strength reduction
  * Dead code elimination (DCE) https://github.com/Shopify/zjit/pull/89

After we moved the ZJIT repo into ruby/ruby, I have continued contributing (see [all PRs](https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pulls?q=author%3Atekknolagi)). I would like to continue contributing to ZJIT and eventually to other parts of Ruby too. Being a maintainer would make it easier to work on ZJIT, especially as we continue the project bringup phase.
