Unified code owners mechanism between Gerrit and GitHub

Description

"Code owners" is the mechanism that automatically assigns reviewers to new code patches.

In Gerrit we use the "reviewers" plugin to automatically set reviewers (See OVIRT-1165).

GitHub has its own mechanism: https://github.com/blog/2392-introducing-code-owners

We would like to have a unified way for oVirt devs to do this regardless of the code hosting platform.

Current direction is to add support for this in the 'automation.yaml' format so that the default behaviour would be to support the GitHub format.

Adding as a blocker to this ticket.
