b).

If the review was substantial enough the reviewer gets bumped to a
secondary author, just as it already happens.

b). Surely performance reviews should also count, they can be at least
as time consuming as a code review, so c) doesn't seem to make sense.

Not sure. Seems like it might be a way to spend a lot of effort without
achieving all that much. But I can also imagine that it feels nice and
encourages a casual reviewer/contributor.

So it's either b) or c). Although I'd perhaps exclude regular
contributors to keep the list reasonable?
