Print a warning if none of the Signed-off-by lines cover the patch
author.
Non-ASCII quoted printable encoding in From: headers and (lack of)
double quotes are handled.
Split From: headers are not fully handled: only the first part is
compared.
Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@glider.be>

Tested using a set of ca. 4000 real world commits.
Most common offenders are people using:
- different email addresses for author and Sob,
- different firstname/lastname order, or other different name
spelling,
- suse.de vs. suse.com.
v3:
- Also print actual missing author,
- Match against "\s*" instead of single space,
v2:
- Use "Encode" instead of "MIME::Words", as the former is a Perl core
module,
- Reduce level from error to warning,
