[RFC] format-patch stuff

It would be nice if git-format-patch would generate a [PATCH 0/n] message 
at the start of the series if some option were given. This would, of 
course, have to be editted afterwards to include actual information, but 
it would at least be pre-generated in series and with the configured 
headers and such.

Shouldn't the format.headers configuration automatically apply the correct 
line termination? Currently, you need to know to put in \r\n at the end of 
each one, and the example isn't even right (only puts \n).

Once we've got library support for remotes configuration, it would be nice 
to be able to have "mailto:" remotes with emailed patch configuration 
stuff per-destination.

instead of the 0/n message be empty, have it start off listing the subject 
lines of the patches to follow (makeing it easier to add any comments 
about them)
