6df07f3e81 Die rather than warn if a Docker image is missing
The warning was done to handle older Nix releases that didn't have
Docker images (091f232896), but this was
a bad idea because it causes us to silently skip uploading Docker
images if e.g. Hydra hasn't finished building them yet.

Issue #10648.

maintainers: update information on team meetings (#10663)
- specify meeting times in terms of a time zone rather than standard
  time (the first encompasses standard time changes)
- add information on who can participate and how
- unrelated but still important: add GitHub handle to contact the team

037c8d771d Fix format errors
Fix formatting violations, update blacklist to reflect moved files.

PR #10556 passed CI before the new formating rules were added, and our
CI has the race condition of allowing old results, resulting in master
getting broken.

5b36ee4c95 Add pre-commit hook and make format target
I've added the new local.mk to the package sources. While this
should not be needed for the build, it is the simplest solution,
and won't cause many extra rebuilds, because the file won't change
very often.

maintainers: Mention the monthly “Assigned” column review
As decided during [the last team meeting](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/2023-12-18-nix-team-meeting-minutes-113/37050#improving-internal-and-external-communication-3), we want to regularly review the `Assigned` column in the team's board because it tends to turn into a graveyard of forgotten stuff.
So encode that in the handbook

maintainers: refine the mission statement phrasing
setting a direction falls short of what we're already doing: guide contributors.

the direction aspect is still important, as that is the authoritative part. guidance is the supportive part.

34c5593525 add a link to all maintainer meeting notes
linking to the discourse category will by default show a view sorted by
most recent post, which makes it hard to find particular meeting notes.

this also adds a procedural detail about the notes, to make that more
explicit and less dependent on being present in the meetings.

78e886bc5f refine the maintainer's process to unblock discussions more quickly
this addresses that we're too often running into open-ended discussions
about attempts to solve problems where neither the problem nor the
solution is well-understood enough to make decisions in a reasonable
amount of time.

this also prevents us from doing more work asynchronously.

f912ab89cc only triage non-trivial pull requests
the team perceives triaging literally everything as too much overhead,
and there is a desire to allow for more parallel action.

6c651599b0 review process: all PRs must be triaged
in order to make the development process more transparent for everyone,
all pull requests should go through the triage process before getting
merged.

this ensures that all team members are aware of what is going on, and
that rationale for decisions is kept track of in the meeting notes for
posterity. (ideally all that should go into the commit history, but this
is a more invasive process change that needs further deliberation.)

having all team members take at least a brief but conscious look at each
change may also help with keeping our quality standards, as more
reviewers are more likely to remind each other of our shared values.

95dabbadd8 Prioritize testing in the maintainers process docs
PRs that don't increase our ongoing obligations (i.e. by adding new
features) but do increase test coverage of existing features are good
things to merge for the health of the project, and thus good to
prioritize.

a556143dc1 add objectives and tasks for Nix team
so far there were no even remotely measurable objectives, only a general
purpose statement.

this change is intended to focus the team's work on what I (and many
others I talked to) perceive to be the main pain point in the
development process.

2d0210472a add @Ericson2314 to the Nix team
John has been part of every meeting since the beginning.
He took on a lot of work on behalf of the team, and provided useful suggestions in discussions, advocating for stability, reasonable design decisions, and maintainable code.

He was in general highly productive within the team process, and repeatedly helped us to keep focus on our stated goals.
Specifically, early on he suggested to gather more experience with the team reviews in order derive our values for the project encode a more structured approach to guiding contributions, which is slowly bearing fruit these days.

John is already the contributor with the most code changes to date (only topped by principal author Eelco), and is well-known to be highly knowledgeable about both high-level design and low-level internals of the code base.
He has continued to offer high quality work during the team's operation, which resulted in many pull requests getting merged that further the team's goals.

It is due time for John to be come an official team member and be granted merge access that he will surely exercise with the great care he is known for.
