Create wrong address If git parsers is used : 'stable@vger.kernel.org#4.4+'

The patch just brings parity to the Mail::Address behavior and git's
fallback parser, so that you don't end up with the broken
stable@vger.kernel.org#4.4+ address. Instead, that content goes into
the name part of the address.

It sounds like you want the "# 4.4+" to be dropped entirely in the
rfc822 header. It looks like send-email used to do that, but stopped
in
b1c8a11c8 (send-email: allow multiple emails using --cc, --to and
--bcc, 2015-06-30).

So perhaps there are further fixes required, but it's hard to know.
The input isn't a valid rfc822 header, so it's not entirely clear what
the output is supposed to be. I can buy either "drop it completely" or
"stick it in the name field of the cc header" as reasonable.
Well, we could always convert it to email address comment, converting for
example the following trailer:

  Cc: John Doe [off-list ref] # comment

to the following address:

  John Doe [off-list ref] (comment)

Just FYI.  Though I'm not sure how well this would work...
Yep, it actually looks as right place to put this kind  of info,  
though I'm  not on the receiving side.
I'm not sure if and how is this used by stable maintainers. 
Thanks
