MAINTAINERS: coalesce name and email address lines
 
Switch the MAINTAINERS email address format from

P:	Linus Torvalds
M:	torvalds@linux-foundation.org

to

M:	Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Mainly to ease the copy-n-pasting of maitnainer addresses into email clients.

The script to perform this operation:

#! /bin/sh
#
# Change MAINTAINERS from
#	P: name
#	M: address
# to:
#	M: name <address>
#
# Integrate P: and M: lines
#
perl -i -e 'local $/; while(<>) { s@P:	([^\n]+)\nM:	([^\n]+)\n@M:	\1 <\2>\n@g; print; }' MAINTAINERS
#
# Quote names with periods, commas and parentheses
#
sed -r -i -e "s/^M:	(.+)([\.,'\(])(.*) </M:	\"\1\2\3\" </g" MAINTAINERS
