checkpatch: additional MAINTAINER section entry ordering checks

There is a preferred order for the entries in MAINTAINERS sections.

See commits 64c7d493e5a6 ("MAINTAINERS: sort field names for all
entries") and c93d681d54e9 ("MAINTAINERS: list the section entries in
the preferred order")

Add checkpatch tests to try to keep that ordering.
