The "Sending patches" and "Patman patch manager" documents refer to the
three-dash, "---", that separates patch parts. The symbol is written in
the documentation in the same form as it is in actual patches: as three
U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS characters. When building the documentation, Sphinx
converts this symbol to a U+2014 EM DASH, that is invalid in this case.
Make the three-dash symbol a reStructuredText inline literal to prevent
its conversion; that is, enclose it in a pair of double backquotes (`).

may wish to have them preserved. This change makes it configurable
via a new 'keep_change_id' setting.

This makes it possible to configure a project to use some other
location or script than the default scripts/get_maintainer.pl one used
in the U-Boot and Linux projects. It can be configured via a .patman
configuration file and accepts arguments, as documented.

This enables versioning a project specific patman configuration file.
It also makes it possible to declare the project name, which is not a
useful thing to do in $HOME/.patman. A new test is added, along
updated documentation.

Pytest offers useful features such as selecting tests by means of a
regular expression, or running the pdb debugger upon encountering a
test failure.

Some tests would fail when the test data is not available, so it
doesn't make much sense to expose the action when patman is running
outside of the u-boot git checkout.
