Integrate the additional features mentioned in the "Contributor Diversity" section into Explorer

Maintainer Diversity

We've had a few spot contributors added. No new maintainers were added. We really need the community to come forward and contribute.

Please find here the maintainers list. https://github.com/hyperledger/blockchain-explorer/blob/master/MAINTAINERS.md

Contributor Diversity

The current main contributors are from DTCC and Fujitsu. We have 4 unique contributors on Github in this quarter.

And we had some proposals for Hyperledger Explorer as below:

New contributions
- EasyDoser
  - This is the outcome of one of the Hyperledger Internship programs. The integration of this feature into Explorer will offer more visibility of the network to users.
  - Ease endorsement operations for Hyperledger based products (EasyDoser)
- LedgerDataRefiner
  - Fujitsu Lab. has proposed integrating their open-sourced ledger data analytics tool into Explorer. We have started the discussion on how to proceed with this contribution.
  - https://github.com/FujitsuLaboratories/Ledger-Data-Refiner
WIP contributions
- minifab
  - This project is offering Hyperledger Explorer support as one of their features and we think it will be a good mutual reference.
- hyperledger-explorer-made-easy
  - This is a kind of utility tool for the easy setup of Hyperledger Explorer. After evaluating this tool and having a consensus for merging it into the Explorer repo within the team, we might get it included in Explorer as one of the official features.
