When running "format-patch" on a multiple patch series, the output
coming from "--interdiff" and "--range-diff" options is inserted
after the "shortlog" list of commits and the overall diffstat.
The idea is that shortlog/diffstat are shorter and with denser
information content, which gives a better overview before the
readers dive into more details of range/inter diff.
When working on a single patch, however, we stuff the inter/range
diff output before the actual patch, next to the diffstat. This
pushes down the patch text way down with inter/range diff output,
distracting readers.
Move the inter/range diff output to the very end of the output,
after all the patch text is shown.
As the inter/range diff is no longer part of the commentary block
(i.e., what comes after the log message and "---", but before the
patch text), stop producing "---" in the function that generates
them. But to separate it out visually (note: this is not needed
to help tools like "git apply" that pay attention to the hunk
headers to figure out the length of the hunks), add an extra blank
line between the end of the patch text and the inter/range diff.

The integration of "git range-diff" with "git format-patch" for a
single patch (i.e., not generating "range-diff" into the cover
letter) hooks into log-tree.c:show_log(), which is responsible for
writing the log message out and other stuff. Essentially,
everything you see before the diffstat and the patch is generated
there.
Split out the code that spits out the interdiff/range-diff into a
separate helper function show_diff_of_diff(). Hopefully this will
make it easier to move things around in the output stream in the
future patches.
This is supposed to be a no-op refactoring.

Explain a full lifecycle of a patch series upfront, so that it is
clear when key decisions to "accept" a series is made and how a new
patch series becomes a part of a new release.
Fold the "you need to monitor the progress of your topic" section
into the primary "patch lifecycle" section, as that is one of the
things the patch submitter is responsible for. It is not like "I
sent a patch and responded to review messages, and now it is their
problem". They need to see their patch through the patch life
cycle.
Earlier versions of this document outlined a slightly different
patch flow in an idealized world, where the original submitter
gathered agreements from the participants of the discussion and sent
the final "we all agreed that this is the good version--please
apply" patches to the maintainer. In practice, this almost never
happened. Instead, describe what flow was used in practice for the
past decade that worked well for us.
