get_maintainer: look for arbitrary letter prefixes in sections
Jani Nikula proposes patches to add a few new letter prefixes for "B:" bug reporting and "C:" maintainer chatting to the various sections of MAINTAINERS. Add a generic mechanism to get_maintainer.pl to find sections that have any combination of "[A-Z]" letter prefix types in a section.
