maintner/cmd/maintserve: carve out into a separate module

This change creates a new module with the module path
golang.org/x/build/maintner/cmd/maintserve, and moves the maintserve
command into it. This is done by adding a go.mod file in the
maintner/cmd/maintserve directory. As a result, the maintserve command
and its dependencies are removed from this and later pseudo-versions of
the golang.org/x/build module.

This is similar to how the h2demo command was carved out into a separate
module in CL 162822.

The motivation for doing this is that the maintserve command requires a
large number of dependencies for its own use, that no other package in
x/build needs. Even though authors of library modules should not be
requiring x/build, it still happens (see golang/go#29935). So, improve
the situation by moving maintserve into a module separate from x/build,
which in turn significantly reduces the dependencies in x/build.

Updates golang/go#29935
