[diversity] Guesswork gender stats for RIPE 74

Hello all,

I updated the code used to guess gender of RIPE meeting attendees to
also work for RIPE 74. (The format of the attendee list changed yet
again, so I had to update the code to deal with the new format - we now
have 11 formats for 74 meetings!) The code is in the same place:

https://github.com/shane-kerr/ripemtggender

The results for RIPE 74 are:

500.89 men
97.11 women 
35.00 unguessable

This makes our historical RIPE gender diversity table look something
like this:

74 633 500.89 (79.13%)  97.11 (15.34%)  35.00 ( 5.53%)

Don't be fooled by the 5-digits of precision I used here - our
"completely unguessable" column is almost 6% after all, and everything
else is also a guess.

Still, we can probably say that there did not seem to be a lot more
women attending RIPE 74 than had attended in the past few years. I am
also willing to guess that saying roughly 4/5 or 5/6 of the attendees
were men is probably not too far off the mark.

I am eager to conduct the same measurement at RIPE 75, and compare it
to self-reported data to see if we can start making guesses about the
error rate and extend that backwards in time. (I am also curious if the
portion of women attendees changes drastically due to the unusual
location of the meeting - especially since we have roughly stable
portions of women attendees in the last couple of years.)

Cheers,
