People sometimes wonder why they cannot apply a patch that only
creates new files to an unborn branch.

This new option tells 'git-am' to ignore the date header field
recorded in the format-patch output. The commits will have the
timestamp when they are created instead.

You can work a lot in one day to accumulate many changes, but
apply and push to the public repository only some of them at
the end of the first day. Then next day you can spend all your
working hours reading comics or chatting with your coworkers,
and apply your remaining patches from the previous day using
this option to pretend that you have been working at the end
of the day.

This new option tells 'git-am' to use the timestamp recorded
in the Email message as both author and committer date.

We try to avoid using the "-q" or "-e" options, as they are
largely useless, as explained in aadbe44f.

There is one exception for "-e" here, which is in t7701 used
to produce an "or" of patterns. This can be rewritten as an
egrep pattern.

This patch also removes use of "grep -F" in favor of the
more widely available "fgrep".

With git-am, it sounds awkward to have the patches in ".git/rebase/",
but for technical reasons, we have to keep the same directory name
for git-am and git-rebase. ".git/rebase-apply" seems to be a good
compromise.

Since the files generated and used during a rebase are never to be
tracked, they should live in $GIT_DIR.  While at it, avoid the rather
meaningless term "dotest" to "rebase", and unhide ".dotest-merge".

This was wished for on the mailing list, but so far unimplemented.

This patch changes every occurrence of "! git" -- with the meaning
that a git call has to gracefully fail -- into "test_must_fail git".

This is useful to

 - make sure the test does not fail because of a signal,
   e.g. SIGSEGV, and

 - advertise the use of "test_must_fail" for new tests.

These violations are simply wrong, but were never caught
because whitespace policy checking is turned off in the test
scripts.

This patch moves the am test cases in t4150-am.sh and the

Add t/t4151-am.sh that does basic testing of git-am functionality,
including:
 * am applies patch correctly
 * am changes committer and keeps author
 * am --signoff adds Signed-off-by: line
 * am stays in branch
 * am --signoff does not add Signed-off-by: line if already there
 * am without --keep removes Re: and [PATCH] stuff
 * am --keep really keeps the subject
 * am -3 falls back to 3-way merge
 * am pauses on conflict
 * am --skip works
 * am --resolved works
 * am takes patches from a Pine mailbox
 * am fails on mail without patch
 * am fails on empty patch
