mailinfo documentation: accurately describe non -k case
Since its very first description of -k, the documentation for
git-mailinfo claimed that (in the case without -k) after cleaning up
bracketed strings [blah], it would insert [PATCH].
It doesn't; on the contrary, one of the important jobs of mailinfo is
to remove those strings.
Since we're already there, rewrite the paragraph to give a complete
enumeration of all the transformations. Specifically, it was missing
the whitespace normalization (run of isspace(c) -> ' ') and the
removal of leading ':'.
