MAINTAINERS: Add myself to write after approval and DCO.

The MAINTAINERS file was updated to grant write access to a new developer after approval and DCO sign-off.

The MAINTAINERS file in the GCC repository was updated to add a new developer with write access permissions. This addition follows the successful completion of the approval process and the Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO) sign-off.

In Details

The MAINTAINERS file lists the developers with write access to specific parts of the GCC codebase. Adding a name to this file grants the developer the ability to commit changes directly to the repository, subject to code review and other contribution guidelines.

For Context

The MAINTAINERS file lists who is responsible for what part of the GCC codebase. Listing someone as a maintainer grants them the ability to directly commit changes after review, and implies a certain level of expertise in their area.
