A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
embarrassment and a minor confusion. Detect such an input and
offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

"git send-email" now uses a more readable timestamps when
formulating a message ID.
* ew/send-email-readable-message-id:
send-email: more meaningful Message-ID
Diligent people save output from format-patch to files, proofread
and edit them and then finally send the result out. If the
resulting files are sent out with "git send-email 0*", this ends up
sending backup files (e.g. 0001-X.patch.backup or 0001-X.patch~)
left by their editors next to the final version. Sending them with
"git send-email 0*.patch" (if format-patch was run with the standard
suffix) would avoid such an embarrassment, but not everybody is
careful.
After collecting files to be sent (and sorting them if read from a
directory), notice when the file being sent out has the same name as
the previous file, plus some suffix (e.g. 0001-X.patch was sent, and
we are looking at 0001-X.patch.backup or 0001-X.patch~), and the
suffix begins with a non-alnum (e.g. ".backup" or "~") and ask if
the user really wants to send it out. Once the user skips sending
such a "backup" file, remember the suffix and stop asking the same
question (e.g. after skipping 0001-X.patch~, skip 0002-Y.patch~
without asking).

Using a YYYYmmddHHMMSS date representation is more meaningful to
humans, especially when used for lookups on NNTP servers or linking
to archive sites via Message-ID (e.g. mid.gmane.org or
mid.mail-archive.com). This timestamp format more easily gives a
reader of the URL itself a rough date of a linked message compared
to having them calculate the seconds since the Unix epoch.
Furthermore, having the MUA name in the Message-ID seems to be a
rare oddity I haven't noticed outside of git-send-email. We
already have an optional X-Mailer header field to advertise for
us, so extending the Message-ID by 15 characters can make for
unpleasant Message-ID-based URLs to archive sites.

The regex for parsing mailrc considers everything after the
second whitespace to be the email address, up to the end of
the line. We have to include whitespace there, because you
may have multiple space-separated addresses, each with their
own internal quoting.
But if there is trailing whitespace, we include that, too.
This confuses quotewords() when we try to split the
individual addresses, and we end up storing "undef" in our
alias list. Later parts of the code then access that,
generating perl warnings.
Let's tweak our regex to throw away any trailing whitespace
on each line.

Add an option "--dump-aliases" which changes the default behavior of
git-send-email. This mode will simply read the alias files configured by
sendemail.aliasesfile and sendemail.aliasfiletype and dump a list of all
configured aliases, one per line. The intended use case for this option
is the bash-completion script which will use it to autocomplete aliases
on the options which take addresses.
Add some tests for the new option using various alias file formats.
A possible future extension to the alias dump format could be done by
extending the --dump-aliases to take an optional argument defining the
format to display. This has not been done in this patch as no user of
this information has been identified.

whitespaces for to, cc and bcc fields.
The from option now:
- has the same behavior when passing arguments like
" jdoe@example.com ", "\t jdoe@example.com " or
"jdoe@example.com".
- interprets aliases in string containing leading and trailing
whitespaces such as " alias" or "alias\t" like other options.

We already have a mechanism to avoid accepting a mistyped e-mail
address (we ask to confirm when the given address lacks "@" in it);
reuse it to trigger the same confirmation when given a very short
answer. As a typical charset name is probably at least 4 chars or
