[PATCH Cogito] Add -u option to cg-log to show only commits from a specific user

Hi Petr,

the attached patch introduces the -u option for cg-log. Now you can give a username or a part of a username and only commits with a matching author or committer will be displayed.

This patch also changes the option parsing, because otherwise we are stuck to a specific order.

Regards
Marcel
