[PATCH v2 0/3] format-patch: introduce option to suppress commit hashes

git format-patch is often used to create patches that are then stored in version control or displayed with diff. Having the commit hash in the "From " line usually just creates diff noise in these cases, so this series introduces --zero-commit to set that to all zeros.

Changes from v1:
* Rename the option --zero-commit.
* Improve the tests to look for a 40-hex hash value in "From " header.
