* Removes the CEO's ability to unilaterally remove a member of the AB or TAG.
* Allows the Team to request the AB or TAG to initiate removal of a member,
and reduces the vote threshold in such cases.
* Allows the CEO + Board of Directors, as a secondary route of action,
to remove participants when necessary.

Relates to #882
This approach is an attempt at finding a compromise: at least one AB participant has expressed wanting the CEO's removal power to be replaced by AB/TAG removal, and while another wants to keep both (partly to have a second pathway in case one is blocked). This attempts to find a third way that both could live with. Reluctance in involving the board has been noted as well (1, 2), in response to an earlier draft relying solely on the Board of Directors.
This is split from #1036, to facilitate discussion of the various independent aspects of that PR. See https://github.com/w3c/process/pull/1036/files#r2079248832 and https://github.com/w3c/process/pull/1036/files#r2064388077 for prior discussion on this particular aspect.
This PRs is against the ab-tag-discipline topic branch (source, preview), not the main branch, meaning we can itterate and accept individual pieces, and still have a chance at the end to judge the combined result before we decide whether to merge it.
