Financial Support For Express #69

@wesleytodd

I was wondering if anyone had any interest in something like this for Express?

https://tidelift.com/
https://www.wired.com/story/netflix-open-source-wants-developers-get-paid/

The idea is that the maintainers commit to certain things to the company (things which are most likely already being done), but in exchange get paid for it via a subscription fee paid to Tidelift. I am not personally looking to "quit my job and do open source", like the wired article talks about, but I can for sure say that if there was a small financial incentive I might put more effort into finishing up my open PRs :)

I think there are many challenges to a project like Express adopting a paid model, but I thought it would be worth at least bringing up.
