Re: [PATCH] git-send-email: Generalize auto-cc recipient mechanism.

There are a few options to git-send-email to suppress the automatic
generation of 'Cc' fields: --suppress-from, and --signed-off-cc.  However,
there are other times that git-send-email automatically includes Cc'd
recipients.  This is not desirable for all development environments.

Add a new option --suppress-cc, which can be specified one or more times to
list the categories of auto-cc fields that should be suppressed.  If not
specified, it defaults to values to give the same behavior as specified
by --suppress-from, and --signed-off-cc.  The categories are:

  self   - patch sender.  Same as --suppress-from.
  author - patch author.
  cc     - cc lines mentioned in the patch.
  cccmd  - avoid running the cccmd.
  sob    - signed off by lines.

+   all    - all of the above, thus only honoring '--to', '--cc', and
             '--bcc'
