Show communities modded/maintained on profile

Title:
Show communities modded/maintained on profile

Area:
profile, communities

Summary:
On the profile page, add a section for "maintainer of" along with "member of," "subscriptions," and "posting access."

Description:
On the profile page, where it lists communities, there are the categories "member of," "subscriptions," and "posting access." (Posting access is hidden from other users.)

I think it would be helpful/interesting to also have a section for "maintainer of."

Personally I, uh, sometimes forget how many communities I've got like that and I'd appreciate being able to see it on my profile instead of having to go to a community management page to get the list.

I also think it would be neat to see that info when viewing other users' profiles, to see which communities they mod/maintain. (Though I imagine not everyone agrees with that aspect and thus optionally this section could be hidden so that only the user can see their own list.)

This may or may not be complicated by the proposed increasing granularity in community management that has been discussed before.

They can end up slightly different. Some communities let nonmembers post, although they don't get listed under posting access.

But, a community admin can take away a member's posting access, without taking away their membership.
