patman: add Commit-notes tag and section
Sometimes a commit should have notes enclosed with it rather than withing the cover letter -- possibly even because there is no cover letter. Add a 'Commit-notes' tag, similar to the 'Series-notes' one; lines between this tag and the next END line are inserted in the patch right after the '---' commit delimiter.
