Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] get_maintainer: Print maintainer for S: Supported

Throughout the documentation we make reference to maintainers as the people
who ought to be mailed when sending patches.

Right now get_maintainer.pl returns "supporter" for maintained files which
are denoted "S: Supported".

Update get_maintainer to output "maintainer" for "S: Supported" the
differentiation between paid (v) non-paid maintainers doesn't impact who
needs to be mailed for patch submissions.
