Added maintainer of nixnote and last packager/submitter of nixnote2-git.

Hum, this whole nixnote thing seems to be a mess. First, a -git package
has every rights to exist in AUR independently of the non-git package.
Next, currently we have:

– nixnote, pointing to 1.6 but flagged out-of-date because of 2.0 release;
– nixnote-beta, pointing to the latest beta of the 2.0 branch, which is
now outdated. Should this package remain?
– nixnote2, which points toward 2.0 and was pushed today;
– nixnote2-git, which builds from git.

Unless there is a particular reason to keep nixnote 1.x alongside
nixnote 2.x, which doesn’t seems to be the case, this is the course of
action I’ll go with:

– nixnote2 gets deleted right away;
– nixnote-beta gets deleted by the end of the week unless someone says
it’s still usefull;
– nixnote2-git gets deleted by the end of the week if no one pushes a
correct nixnote-git package, else it gets merged into that one.

Please answer the point on 1.x vs 2.x ASAP. ;)

Regards,
Bruno
