MAINTAINERS: re-sort all entries and fields

It's been a few years since we've sorted this thing, and the end result
is that we've added MAINTAINERS entries in the wrong order, and a number
of entries have their fields in non-canonical order too.

So roll this boulder up the hill one more time by re-running

   ./scripts/parse-maintainers.pl --order

on it.

This file ends up being fairly painful for merge conflicts even
normally, since unlike almost all other kernel files it's one of those
"everybody touches the same thing", and re-ordering all entries is only
going to make that worse.  But the alternative is to never do it at all,
and just let it all rot..

The rc2 week is likely the quietest and least painful time to do this.
