patman: Add "postfix" support to patch subjects
In some communities, it may be necessary to append something after PATCH
in the subject line. For example, the Linux networking subsystem
expects [1] patch subject prefixes like [RFC PATCH net-next 0/99]. This
adds support for such "postfix"s to patman. Although entirely cosmetic,
it is still nice to have.
