9p: update maintainers and documentation
Updates to the MAINTAINERS file and documentation for 9p to point to the swik wiki versus the outdated sf.net page. Also updated some email addresses and added pointers to papers which better describe the implementation and application of the Linux 9p client. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
