format-patch: teach --cover-from-description option

Before, when format-patch generated a cover letter, only the body would
be populated with a branch's description while the subject would be
populated with placeholder text. However, users may want to have the
subject of their cover letter automatically populated in the same way.

Teach format-patch to accept the `--cover-from-description` option and
corresponding `format.coverFromDescription` config, allowing users to
populate different parts of the cover letter (including the subject
now).
