Allow collaborators to share Github Sponsors link in project readme

[anonrig]

I propose adding github sponsors link in nodejs's readme next to TSC members, collaborators and triagers.

We don't have any funding options like Eslint or other large projects but this would give collaborators some incentive to continue their contributions.

I'd like to hear @nodejs/tsc's opinion before opening a PR.

Question: Do we want to limit this to only Github Sponsors or are we going to allow others like buy me coffee, or patreon etc?

I see no reason to limit to GitHub Sponsors only, but IMO it makes sense to not add more options until someone requests it

I’m +1 of the idea, but I think we should add them to the website instead.

Adding tsc-agenda for visibility and possible discussion

Why not both?

Why TSC members and not everyone listed on the README? It'd feel a bit weird to have a special treatment for us.
In anyh case, we have a bunch of automation that relies on the README list to formatted the way it is currently, so we'd need to update all that before merging the change.

IIRC the TSC members are not listed on the website atm – if we add such list to the website, we should not forget about adding a bullet to the onboarding/offboarding document.

I meant everyone, not specifically a portion of the organization.

My bad! In that case, should we transfer this to nodejs/node? It seems it should not be a TSC decision.

[mcollina]

Doing it should fall on the TSC, I think we should approve it here before opening there.

Adding it to the website and or the readme.

SGTM, as I mentioned in the discussion in the TSC call, the proposal should define a standard way of presenting that link, e.g: use a plain html link with a text: (Sponsor me) linking to the collaborator-selected sponsor url.
