docs(governance): remove the unused Directors role
GOVERNANCE.md defined a Directors role (non-technical leaders, elected by the maintainers, one vote in decisions), but no Directors were ever identified or elected. The role was intended for non-technical leadership, but those people ended up maintaining parts of the project directly, so it stayed unused. Remove it so the documented decision-making body matches actual leadership (maintainers, by consensus with a simple-majority fallback); it can be reintroduced if a real need arises. Addresses cozystack/community#79. Signed-off-by: Timur Tukaev <[email protected]>
