- Use gender-neutral language to refer to the user, consistently.
- Reference the checkpatch document.
- Move the section on commit message tags to the process document and
  reference this in sending_patches.rst.
  - Reword the custodian workflow process section to refer to this new
    section, integrate some of the wording from there in this new section.
- Update the comment about GPLv2 applying to August 2022, to be clear
  this still is correct.
- Reword the section about MAKEALL to talk about local build testing and
  link to the CI document.

  modifying existing code.

6349b186d8 doc: sending_patches.rst: Incorporate the old "Patches" wiki content
Import as-is much of the old "Patches" wiki page to the current
sending_patches.rst file. This means we need to move patman to being
included in the higher level ToC and add a reference for "Custodians" in
the process document. A very minimal amount of content changing and
rewording is done here as part of the import, in order to make the
conversion easier.
