In this commit, we create the initial CODEOWNERS file for `lnd`. This file is a new-ish feature of Github that allows the maintains of a project to define the individuals who are deemed to be experts of a particular section of the codebase. Automated review assignment systems can then use this file to generate required reviewers for a section of the project. The CODEOWNERS file isn't meant to be a strict guideline, but instead can be used to ease the burden of finding reviewers for a particular section of the codebase. It's also possible to enforce that the CODEOWNERS for a particular file/package sign-off on relevant changes, thereby blocking review unless they're involved. However, for now we'll simply use it to guide the review assignment project, leaving creating blocking review constraints until a later point if deemed useful.
