Subject: [PATCH] scripts: get_maintainer: add an option to format for command line

This adds the option to return the list of maintainers in the format for
sending via command line, specifically targeted for `git send-email`.
This will add a `--to` tag before the first email and a `--cc` tag for
each following email. The option can be toggled by using the
`--cl-format` flag when calling the get_maintainer script.

The new addition is disabled by default and will only print (even if
enabled) if there are maintainers to return. This will prevent the
script from trying to generate a formatted line without any maintainers
and also allow the user to visually verify that the outputted line contains
the correct maintainers and lists (by verifying the roles).
