Add Stan repositories to GitHub Sponsors

Since there’s an obvious way to donate money to Stan via NumFocus it seems like we might do well to take advantage of the GitHub sponsors program, https://github.com/sponsors . It lets people donate via the github repository page with very little friction.

Hi,
the link just describes the GitHub sponsors programme. We are currently not involved with the programme and I believe @ariddell meant this post not as a call to action for regular users but as a consideration for developers or the SGB. I do not think any action on your side is required or expected. Does that make sense?

Let’s ping the @SGB folks, as I take that this kind of decision should be ratified or at least agreed by them.

Thanks, I’ll bring this up with the SGB

@jonah, I received an email from NumFOCUS about switching the stan-dev account. I’m forwarding it to the SGB now.
