SubmittingPatches: Clarify the Signed-off-by rules
The wording of the Signed-off-by rules could be read as stating that
S-O-B should only be added when the submitter considered the patch
ready for inclusion in git.git.
We also want Signed-off-by to be used for e.g. RFC patches, in case
someone wants to dig an old patch out of the archive and improve
it. Change the wording to recommend a Signed-off-by for all submitted
patches.
The problem with the wording came up in the "[PATCH/RFC] Hacky version
of a glob() driven config include" thread[1]. Bert Wesarg suggested[2]
that it be removed to avoid confusion, which this change implements.
