2022-09-01doc: process, sending_patches: Update and correct the old "Patches" contentTom Rini
- Use gender-neutral language to refer to the user, consistently. - Reference the checkpatch document. - Move the section on commit message tags to the process document and reference this in sending_patches.rst. - Reword the custodian workflow process section to refer to this new section, integrate some of the wording from there in this new section. - Update the comment about GPLv2 applying to August 2022, to be clear this still is correct. - Reword the section about MAKEALL to talk about local build testing and link to the CI document. - Reference the system_configuration document for the note about modifying existing code. - Reword the patchwork flow section.

2022-09-01doc: sending_patches.rst: Incorporate the old "Patches" wiki contentTom Rini
Import as-is much of the old "Patches" wiki page to the current sending_patches.rst file. This means we need to move patman to being included in the higher level ToC and add a reference for "Custodians" in the process document. A very minimal amount of content changing and rewording is done here as part of the import, in order to make the conversion easier.
