patman: Add a call to get_maintainer.pl if it exists
For Linux the best way to figure out where to send a patch is with the "get_maintainer.pl" script. Add support for calling it from patman. Support is added unconditionally for "scripts/get_maintainer.pl" in case it is helpful for any other projects. Signed-off-by: Doug Anderson <dianders@chromium.org>
