[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: pwm: Thierry steps down, Uwe takes over

It's not easy to let go responsibility for a subsystem that one cared
for for a long time, but Thierry realized that his heart isn't in the
pwm framework any more.

Thierry cared for the pwm subsystem (commit 200efedd8766 ("pwm: Take
over maintainership of the PWM subsystem")) as a maintainer during
nearly 12 years. A big thanks for the time, effort and dedication spend
during that time.

Uwe takes over maintenance.

Sure, here it comes.

I hesitated to remove you completely, but I guess you intended a clean
cut? Or would you prefer to stay as a reviewer?

Usually I would have added you to CREDITS, but as you will continue to
fill your various other responsibilities (I expect), this felt wrong. 

Best regards
Uwe
