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.

Link to patman's documentation from the doc/ directory so that it appears
in the 'make htmldocs' output.
