Sometimes, it is useful to be able to send a patch to a third party
without the author of the patch being copied on the message. An
common example would be an internal discussion at a company to ask if
a particular patch should be applied. Some environments may even have
policy against such mail being sent outside of the company.
Add the --suppress-all-from/--no-suppress-all-from options to avoid
sending patches to the patch author, even if different from the
sender. Add the sendemail.suppressallfrom config option to allow this
to have a different default.

This has caused me some pain previously, and just earlier today I
received an internal patch mail from somebody at another company who
almost certainly did not intend to cc me.
