scripts/get_maintainer.pl: handle file names beginning with ./

The problem is that get_maintainer.pl doesn't work if you have a ./ prefix on the filename. For example, if you type: ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f ./drivers/usb/usb-skeleton.c then the current code only includes LKML and people from the git log, it doesn't include Greg or the linux-usb list.
