Fixes #299 and addresses conversations related to transparency about who is paid by grants as it relates to roles and responsibilities

Key personnel across grants (@fiona-naughton, @IAlibay, @lilyminium, @micaela-matta, @orbeckst, @richardjgowers) should please confirm their grant information is represented properly. @orbeckst - I especially wasn't sure how to best represent the NSF funding here.

Since many of the SDGs were awarded to MDAnalysis before it became a NumFOCUS sponsored project, I do not have access to historical records about key personnel involved on these grants. Please add if you know any of this information.

Thanks so much for this @jennaswa - I have a quick question on "key personnel" which is more me overthinking so I'll ping you on discord.

I had originally put people in the 'Key Personnel' category if they were named personnel in the grant (essentially co-PIs), and 'Hired Personnel' included other people that were paid money from the grant. For now I have simplified the categories to instead list all personnel that were named in the grants or have received money from them, with lead PIs depicted to indicate points of contact. Thoughts on this approach as opposed to a more granular approach? Would it be worth indicating all of the co-PIs that were involved in writing the grant in some way instead of just the lead PI/submitter?

Either approach is fine by me, and both do the job for the purposes of transparency on funding. The current approach of not indicating co-PIs seems simpler IMO but happy to be overruled.

Looking good, but could you please explicitly include the NSF REU students who contributed to MDA, see comment? Just handles as for everybody else, I just wrote the names as this is as I had the information. Thanks.

Thanks @jennaswa !

(I am making an update to the REU, given that we list by year.)
