Series b4: ty: Fix incorrect patch/commit association | expand

Nicolin reports that 'b4 ty' produced a "thank you" letter with
incorrect commit IDs:

  https://lore.kernel.org/r/ZeDtfKMUXnOnJOic@Asurada-Nvidia

This appears to be because of the creative use of Message-Ids in the
series at:

  https://lore.kernel.org/r/0-v6-96275f25c39d+2d4-smmuv3_newapi_p1_jgg@nvidia.com

For example, comparing the Message-Id of patches 1 and 11 of that series,
we can see that one is a substring of the other:

  Message-Id: <1-v6-96275f25c39d+2d4-smmuv3_newapi_p1_jgg@nvidia.com>
  Message-Id: <11-v6-96275f25c39d+2d4-smmuv3_newapi_p1_jgg@nvidia.com>

This confuses auto_locate_series(), as it will end up matching the
Message-Id of patch 1 with the Link: tag in patch 11 and therefore get
the wrong patch/commit association.

Fix this problem by trying to match each commit based on the Subject
before falling back to the fuzzier tracker-based matching.
