Subject: Make git send-email accept $EDITOR with arguments

Make git send-email accept $EDITOR with arguments

Currently git send-email does not accept $EDITOR with arguments, eg,
emacs -nw, when starting an editor to produce a cover letter.  This
patch changes this by letting the shell handle the option parsing.
