[PATCH 5/5] Documentation: publicize hints for sending patches with GMail

[Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>]

The hints in SubmittingPatches about stopping GMail from clobbering
patches are widely useful both as examples of "git send-email" and
"git imap-send" usage.

Move the documentation to the appropriate places.

While at it, don't encourage storing passwords in config files.

That's the end of the series.  Thoughts welcome as always.
