Maintainer notes

This is long overdue release from the previous one, 0.28.5. Initially, I was thinking to include OpenTofu support into this release, but it took a bit longer than I anticipated.

But still there are something to highlight in this notes:

• @lukemassa has helped setup the gitlab e2e tests
• @GenPage helped shipped the Atlantis governance doc
• We have created https://github.com/runatlantis/examples to include example setups (feel free to contribute to the repo)
• We are also planning to migrate atlantis slack into CNCF slack, https://github.com/runatlantis/atlantis/issues/4878

As always, join Our Community on Slack. If you have any questions or concerns, please join our Slack community and share with us: Join Atlantis Community on Slack.
