MAINTAINERS: pwm: Thierry steps down, Uwe takes over

It's not easy to let go responsibility for a subsystem that one cared
for for a long time, but Thierry realized that his heart isn't in the
pwm framework any more.

Thierry cared for the pwm subsystem (commit 200efedd8766 ("pwm: Take
over maintainership of the PWM subsystem")) as a maintainer during
nearly 12 years. A big thanks for the time, effort and dedication spend
during that time.

Uwe takes over maintenance.

Sure, here it comes.

I hesitated to remove you completely, but I guess you intended a clean
cut? Or would you prefer to stay as a reviewer?

Usually I would have added you to CREDITS, but as you will continue to
fill your various other responsibilities (I expect), this felt wrong. 

Best regards
Uwe

Looks all good to me. I'll keep things going until the next merge window
and will then send out my last PWM pull request and let Linus know to
expect future requests to come from you.
