RTEMS Timeline Update and 25th Anniversary of First Public Commit

Hi

The RTEMS Project is rapidly approaching a major milestone -- the 25th
anniversary of the oldest commit in the git repository! That occurs on 4
May 2020!

Before that time, the source code was managed on an internal research
project repository and snapshots/releases made available via ftp. I know I
started with the project in July 1989 and was coding nearly from the first
day.

With this in mind, the https://devel.rtems.org/wiki/History/Timeline is
sorely out of date and lacking missing entries. Multiple mission launches,
addition of SMP, GSoC, GCI, and SOCIC participation, move to OSU OSL,
incorporation of RTEMS Foundation, scientific discoveries like the particle
discovered by an Atlas detector at CERN or the famous gamma ray burst from
Fermi. All are missing.

Please pitch in and help. If you want to help but don't have any ideas,
just post back and I will try to follow up with ideas that someone else can
put a date on.

Thanks.
