When applying a commit fails because of RCS keywords, Git
will fail the P4 submit. It would help the user if Git suggested that
the user set git-p4.attemptRCSCleanup to true.

Change the applyCommit() method that when applying a commit fails
becasue of the P4 RCS Keywords, the user should consider setting
git-p4.attemptRCSCleanup to true.

small nit: we should use `is not None` here.
