Subject: b4 send needs a subject in the cover

If I've got a patch series with a single patch in it then there's no
need for a cover letter and if it's the first version no need for a
changelog so I'd expect to just delete all the text in the b4 cover
other than the recipients.  However if I do that then what seems to end
up happening is that the first recipient gets deleted, I'm guessing
parsed as a subject which then doesn't get used due to this being a
single message.

I can see why this happens but it's a bit of a gotcha - printing the
subject might help make it clearer what's going on in this case?
