scripts/get_maintainer.pl: Add -f directory use

Don't require a specific file in a directory to be tested.

Also Arnd Bergmann pointed out that the MAINTAINERS pattern requirement
that directory patterns have a trailing slash was unnecessary and was
likely to be error prone.  Removed that requirement.

Notes:
Using "-f directory" may give unexpected results:
Used with "--git", git signators for _all_ files in and below
directory are examined as git recurses directories.
Any specified X: (exclude) pattern matches are _not_ ignored.
Used with "--nogit", directory is used as a pattern match,
no individual file within the directory or subdirectory
is matched.
