checkpatch: Handle continuation headers.
Continuation headers baffle checkpatch, as it can only operate
on one line of context at a time. When continuation headers are found,
put them up with the header they're continuing so the whole thing
can be parsed in a single line of context.
checkpatch: Don't treat diffs as patches.
The patch-header cleanup code assumed that it would only ever
see patches, which was of course hogwash. This lead to crazy
results as it tried to wrap what it thought were continuation
lines at the beginnings of raw diffs.
