format-patch: make cover letters always text/plain
When formatting a series of patches using --attach and --cover-letter, the cover letter lacks the closing MIME boundary, violating RFC 2046. Certain clients, such as Thunderbird, discard the message body in such a case. Since the cover letter is just one part and sending it as multipart/mixed is not very useful, always emit it as text/plain, avoiding the boundary problem altogether.
