[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: name the kvmarm/kvmarm next branch

The T: entry for KERNEL VIRTUAL MACHINE FOR ARM64 (KVM/arm64) names
kvmarm/kvmarm without a branch.  The repository's HEAD (master,
0225fd5e0a6a) is a commit from 2020-05-01 that mainline already
contains.  linux-next pulls next from this repository (Next/Trees,
next-20260923), and on 2026-09-24 that branch carried work not yet in
mainline.  Name the branch so the entry identifies where development
happens.

Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst sends contributors to the
T: entry to find the tree to prepare patches against, so a branch-less
entry whose HEAD is already in mainline points them at the wrong tree.
