Task: Create theme maintainers team and see who is still wanting to help maintain themes #3118

Description

@joshgoebel

Need to create a theme maintainers list so that theme maintainers who desire can keep their themes up-to-date.

The overall idea being that themes (like grammars) are never "one and done" that over time they require a (small) amount of maintenance to keep up with changes in the core library, grammars, theming in general, etc. Themes that have no owner/maintainer should possibly be moved into an old_themes repository/folder with a README that indicates they may not provide the best results compared to core themes.

Of course we'd love it if all themes were maintained and provided a great experience.

What kind of things require upkeep? See #2500, #2521, etc... plus the recent additions of property, punctuation, operator, and other prior and upcoming changes... but this issue is just trying to get everyone onto a team so I can more easily contact you. After that I'll focus on typing up a list of things you may want to consider when refreshing your themes to take advantage of recent changes and improvements.
