parse-maintainers: Do not sort section content by default
Add an --order switch to control section reordering. Default for --order is off. Change the default ordering to a slightly more sensible: M: Person acting as a maintainer R: Person acting as a patch reviewer L: Mailing list where patches should be sent S: Maintenance status W: URI for general information Q: URI for patchwork tracking B: URI for bug tracking/submission C: URI for chat P: URI or file for subsystem specific coding styles T: SCM tree type and location F: File and directory pattern X: File and directory exclusion pattern N: File glob K: Keyword - patch content regex Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
