📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR restructures TiDB's OWNERS governance by migrating the root OWNERS file from static approver/reviewer lists to a rules-based filter configuration, comprehensively updating OWNERS_ALIASES with revised SIG and community memberships, and establishing isolated ownership configurations across 20 package directories with targeted approver group assignments.

Changes

Root governance restructuring and package ownership setup

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Root OWNERS filter migration and alias membership update OWNERS, OWNERS_ALIASES	OWNERS configuration restructured from explicit approver/reviewer username lists to filters-based rules with path-specific assignments (sig-critical-approvers-dep for go.mod, default for .*). OWNERS_ALIASES updated with revised SIG group memberships, removal of obsolete alias keys, and significantly expanded community-reviewer and community-approver member lists.
Executor parent and aggregation ownership pkg/executor/OWNERS, pkg/executor/aggfuncs/OWNERS, pkg/executor/aggregate/OWNERS, pkg/executor/mppcoordmanager/OWNERS	Parent executor OWNERS enables no-parent-owners with pattern filter for analyze-related Go files assigned to sig-approvers-stats. Aggregation, aggregate, and coordination manager subdirectories assign sig-approvers-executor as sole approver.
Executor operation ownership (join, sort, union) pkg/executor/join/OWNERS, pkg/executor/sortexec/OWNERS, pkg/executor/unionexec/OWNERS	Join, sort, and union executor subdirectories configured with no-parent-owners and sig-approvers-executor approvals.
Analysis and statistics ownership pkg/executor/test/analyzetest/OWNERS, pkg/statistics/OWNERS	Executor test analysis directory and statistics package assigned to sig-approvers-stats for analysis/statistics code ownership, with statistics also adding component/statistics label.
DDL domain ownership (ingestor, naming) pkg/ingestor/OWNERS, pkg/util/naming/OWNERS	Ingestor and util/naming packages configured with sig-approvers-ddl as sole approver and no-parent-owners enabled.
Core infrastructure ownership pkg/metrics/OWNERS, pkg/lightning/config/OWNERS, pkg/meta/metadef/OWNERS, pkg/session/OWNERS, pkg/sessionctx/vardef/OWNERS	Core service packages configured with domain-specific approvers: metrics with sig-approvers-metrics, lightning with sig-critical-approvers-tidb-lightning, meta with pattern-based assignment of critical and meta approvers, and session/sessionctx with split filters for critical and DDL approvers.
Component ownership shifts pkg/dumpformat/OWNERS, pkg/dxf/OWNERS	Package ownership transitions from legacy groups: dumpformat moves from sig-approvers-disttask to sig-approvers-dumpling, and dxf moves from sig-approvers-tidb-binlog to sig-approvers-dxf.
