patman: Use the Change-Id, version, and prefix in the Message-Id
As per the centithread on ksummit-discuss [1], there are folks who feel that if a Change-Id is present in a developer's local commit that said Change-Id could be interesting to include in upstream posts. Specifically if two commits are posted with the same Change-Id there's a reasonable chance that they are either the same commit or a newer version of the same commit. Specifically this is because that's how gerrit has trained people to work. There is much angst about Change-Id in upstream Linux, but one thing that seems safe and non-controversial is to include the Change-Id as part of the string of crud that makes up a Message-Id. Let's give that a try. In theory (if there is enough adoption) this could help a tool more reliably find various versions of a commit. This actually might work pretty well for U-Boot where (I believe) quite a number of developers use patman, so there could be critical mass (assuming that enough of these people also use a git hook that adds Change-Id to their commits). I was able to find this git hook by searching for "gerrit change id git hook" in my favorite search engine. In theory one could imagine something like this could be integrated into other tools, possibly even git-send-email. Getting it into patman seems like a sane first step, though. NOTE: this patch is being posted using a patman containing this patch, so you should be able to see the Message-Id of this patch and see that it contains my local Change-Id, which ends in 2b9 if you want to check.
