Remove forbidden @author tag from Magento_Catalog (part 1)

[fredden]

Description

According to https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.4/coding-standards/docblock-standard-general.html#documentation-space, the @author tag is not permitted in Magento. This pull request removes this tag from (some of) the Magento_Catalog module. Given there are so many instances of this tag, I've opened a small pull request to get the process started. I expect that the linter will force me to fix several other coding standards violations on the way, so having a smaller pull request means that task is easier to manage. I plan to open more pull requests to tackle the other instances of this tag.

Hi @fredden. Thank you for your contribution!
Here are some useful tips on how you can test your changes using Magento test environment.

Add the comment under your pull request to deploy test or vanilla Magento instance:

• @magento give me test instance - deploy test instance based on PR changes
• @magento give me 2.4-develop instance - deploy vanilla Magento instance

❗ Automated tests can be triggered manually with an appropriate comment:

• @magento run all tests - run or re-run all required tests against the PR changes
• @magento run <test-build(s)> - run or re-run specific test build(s)
  For example: @magento run Unit Tests

<test-build(s)> is a comma-separated list of build names.

Allowed build names are:

1. Database Compare
2. Functional Tests CE
3. Functional Tests EE
4. Functional Tests B2B
5. Integration Tests
6. Magento Health Index
7. Sample Data Tests CE
8. Sample Data Tests EE
9. Sample Data Tests B2B
10. Static Tests
11. Unit Tests
12. WebAPI Tests
13. Semantic Version Checker
