Docs: Remove the authors list from wireshark(1). 

The AUTHORS section of wireshark(1) is about half the content of the man
page. While it's important to acknowledge the people who have
contributed to the project, the goal of the man page is to tell people
how to use Wireshark.

Replace the list of authors with text that acknowledges their
contributions along with pointers to the AUTHORS file and the list on
the main web site.
