Which issue does this PR close?

Closes #10479

Rationale for this change

As part of governing DataFusion in the open and via the Apache Way, we should make sure that as much as possible is done in the open.

One part of governance is the specific process of how to discuss and then invite new committers and PMC members and this is important institutional knowledge so new PMC members can help growing the community

What changes are included in this PR?

Add an "Inviting New Committers and PMC members" page which describes the logistics of inviting new committers and PMC members

Note This document is largely based on the Arrow "Inviting New Committers and PMC Members" document

Are these changes tested?

N/A

Are there any user-facing changes?

More documentation (that I expect only a few will read)

I think this is meant to convey that the new PMC member accepted the invitation rather than that another group accepted the PMC member
