[PATCH 0/2] send-email: add --mailmap support

[Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com>]

I recently sent a series to enable mailmap support in format patch. The
discussion led me to realize that the true problem we wanted solved is to
map addresses at send time, so that we do not accidentally include a dead
mail address when sending an old change.

Instead of worrying about what the formatted patch has, this series
implements support for mailmap at the send-email, which will translate all
addresses, and not just the author/commit addresses for a patch, but also
the email for any trailers.o

I considered also that it may be useful to make send-email read a mailmap
file from the identity config blocks, but have not figured out how to
implement this yet.

I ended up needing to extend git check-mailmap to handle addresses without
the angle brackets as well.

I think this is closer to solving the actual problem we have, which is
wanting to avoid adding dead email addresses for coworkers who have moved
on, but without completely removing their name from the works.
