Add a last_reviewed_date
to docs metadata
...
- At the AGM we formed an ad-hoc documentation working group.
- One of our ideas was that we should have a last reviewed date for
documentation, so that we can periodically implement a review
mechanism (GitHub Actions posts to Slack for a regular documentation
outdatedness check?) to track how old docs are and ensure they're
still relevant.
- This is a first step towards that goal, by adding a `last_review_date`
to the metadata of all docs with a date of earlier than Homebrew's
inception because everything needs reviewing so that we start from a
good base!

docs/FAQ: tap homebrew/core before editing formula
...
New installs don't tap `homebrew/core`, so `brew edit foo` fails with
`Error: Invalid usage: foo doesn't exist on disk.` for any package.
Add an instruction to run `brew tap homebrew/core` first, which fixes
this issue.

FAQ: Replace Max's pronoun with his name
...
- For some reason, the documented way of disabling a style for a
specific section of Markdown text[1] didn't work for disabling the
pronoun lint here. This is about the only place we have a legitimate
need for it. Instead, sadly, squash this linting error by using his
name.
- Also adjust the sentence for further clarity in light of this.
