Subject: checkpatch: Ignore email headers better
There are some patches created by git format-patch that when scanned by
checkpatch report errors on lines like
To: address.tld
This is a checkpatch false positive.
Improve the logic a bit to ignore folded email headers to avoid emitting
these messages.
