Refine TC charter, responsibilities and related workflows

[tigrannajaryan]

This issue is to capture action items that will address the discussion opened in #837 about the leadership responsibilities that the TC has, and also about clarifying and improving the contributing workflows.

The TC discussed the problem and came up with a preliminary list of action items linked below.

I would like to encourage every Otel member to suggest additional action items or amend any of the listed action items with the goal of improving the experience of contributing to Otel, particularly from the angle of getting more value from the TC (but not limited to it).

Please note: these are initial drafts and are open for discussion and amendment. To discuss the individual action item please comment on the linked issue. To suggest a new action item please comment here.

• Refine and describe workflow for issues opentelemetry-specification#1962
• Write "how to" Guides opentelemetry-specification#1961
• Review and clarify the TC charter #850
• Refine and describe workflow for PRs opentelemetry-specification#1963
• Clarify ad hoc workgroup operation #849
• Declare what must be in specs and what may be in specs opentelemetry-specification#1964
• List areas of interest of TC members #848

TODO: add assignees to each action item.

UPDATE: list is sorted in descending order of votes as of 2021-10-05. Will start looking for assignees top-to-bottom.
