checkpatch: additional MAINTAINER section entry ordering checks
There is a preferred order for the entries in MAINTAINERS sections. See commits 3b50142d ("MAINTAINERS: sort field names for all entries") and 6680125e ("MAINTAINERS: list the section entries in the preferred order") Add checkpatch tests to try to keep that ordering.
