Paolo Bonzini 8089c85bcb git-commit: add a prepare-commit-msg hook
The prepare-commit-msg hook is run whenever a "fresh" commit message
is prepared, just before it is shown in the editor (if it is).
Its purpose is to modify the commit message in-place.

It takes one to three parameters.  The first is the name of the file that
the commit log message.  The second is the source of the commit message,
and can be: "message" (if a -m or -F option was given); "template" (if a
-t option was given or the configuration option commit.template is set);
"merge" (if the commit is a merge or a .git/MERGE_MSG file exists);
"squash" (if a .git/SQUASH_MSG file exists); or "commit", followed by
a commit SHA1 as the third parameter (if a -c, -C or --amend option
was given).

If its exit status is non-zero, git-commit will abort.  The hook is
not suppressed by the --no-verify option, so it should not be used
as a replacement for the pre-commit hook.

The sample prepare-commit-msg comments out the `Conflicts:` part of
a merge's commit message; other examples are commented out, including
adding a Signed-off-by line at the bottom of the commit messsage,
that the user can then edit or discard altogether.
