maintainers: remove alois31

It is becoming increasingly clear that improvements to Nixpkgs will benefit
disproportionately the weapons industry. Consequently, my semi-regular
involvement in its development will come to an end (at least for now, but given
how long the situation has been ongoing, realistically this is going to be more
a resignation than an indefinite strike). Let me end with some dedications:

* To everyone who has already left because they realised the issue years ago.
  You were right, and I failed you by not listening. If we ever cross paths
  again, I hope we will be able to work with each other rather than against
  like this time, because (only) together we are strong.
* To everyone working in the weapons industry. May God bless you with the
  ability to put your skills to better use elsewhere. What is needed is more
  welfare, less warfare.
* To everyone who has worked on, is working on, and will work on the free and
  open-source software. Both for sharing something useful, and for offering
  learning opportunities by working together. Great things can be achieved when
  one works for all, and all work for one.
* To everyone who has been harmed, directly or indirectly, by the development
  of Nixpkgs, including but not limited to by my own involvement. Striving to
  not repeat this is imperative, but no excuse.
