[PATCH] Patchbomb: option --text allows to send patches as plain text

[S. Heimberg]

To append patches as text files was the prefered way of TortoiseHG
(http://tortoisehg.wiki.sourceforge.net/Submitting+Patches). It seemd to be
the best format for Gmail users. But the wiki page has changed recently. It
looks like if I were too late.
If there is any need for this patch, I will resend it with a better help
message. Anybody?
