For quite a long time we've been using a 3 week, rather than 2 week,
merge window as it was only 2 weeks during the timeframe where we did 2
month rather than 3 month releases. This corrects the places that still
had 2 weeks and tries to make things a bit clearer overall.

The "Workflow of a Custodian" section on the wiki had not been changed
in quite some time to reflect how the process has been functioning for
some time. First, update some links to point to modern and current
sources of information.
Second, and more overarching, reword much of the section. This expands
on the expectations of both custodians and developers when it comes to
rebasing patches. Rework the final points to be clearer that Custodians
are expected to do their best to test the changes and ask for help when
needed, as well as that pull requests are expected in a timely manner.

- Use gender-neutral language to refer to the user, consistently.
- Reword a few places so that they read more naturally.
- Make the long standing practice around "Twilight Time" more clear,
hopefully.
- Replace a reference to MAKEALL with a reference to CI testing as
that's the current requirement.

Move the current Process wiki page to doc/develop/process.rst. The
changes here are for formatting or slight rewording so that it reads
well when linking to other Sphinx documents.
