A couple of tiny changes as i was reading the BIP from top to bottom. See commit messages for details.

bip3: rename 'shareholder' to 'stakeholder'

Shareholder refers to an individual or a legal entity owning a share of a company's share capital.
Since the Bitcoin system is not a company, but different actors across the industry have a stake in
its operation, i think the word "stakeholder" better conveys the intended meaning of the original
author here.

bip3: link to ownership transfer section for complete->closed transition

Reading from top to bottom, the passive voice "they become BIP's author or deputy" left me wondering
how it would concretely work in practice. Link to the transferring ownership section for
clarification.
