github/developer.github.com — Issue #61: Repo API - Contributors names

[`GET /repos/:user/:repo/contributors`](http://developer.github.com/v3/repos/#list-contributors) is missing the 'name' field. It's possible to use the Users API to fetch the names of each user individually. This is not feasible on long lists.

A name field would be very useful. [The old v2 API has it](http://develop.github.com/p/repo.html).
