Several comments in our code refer to an anonymous user with "he/him" or
"she/her" pronouns, and the choice between the two is arbitrary.

Replace these uses with "they/them" which universally includes all
potential readers.

We should not change upstream projects we pull in like that, see
README.Git in that directory +
https://github.com/git-multimail/git-multimail.
It is probably a good idea to make that upstream project not only the
authoritative source, but the only source. In other words, I think we
should replace the files in `contrib/hooks/multimail/` by a `README` that
points to the indicated URL.
