[PATCH] support cover letter before commit log, using "+++"

We already have a "---" separator to end the commit log.
But writing the cover letter after this separator looks strange.
Now it is possible to put the cover letter and comments both before
or after the commit log, as the author sees fit.

Just put the commit log between lines starting with "+++" and "---".
