Contributors check

The shell script and the modification of the CI script provided by this merge request aim to identify the unknown authors (i.e. authors of commits not listed in an external reference file) to invite the team to check if these authors have already signed the contributor license agreement (CLA). When this is done, the authors must be added to the reference list.
