David Bremner e08f5f76e4 test: add 'lkml' corpus
These 210 messages are in several long threads, which is good for
testing our threading code, and may be useful just as a larger test
corpus in the future.

Why should we codify our conventions in MAINTAINERS to accommodate the
specific problem of virtually a _single_ patch author?
Conventions are living and are being adjusted all the time, as code
organization changes, people join and go, projects start and cease.
Said author please looks the conventions up in the git history. If he
finds that this decelerates his patch generation rate, he can surely
code a script that looks into git for him and suggests plausible
prefixes for his patch titles to him. Or he can collect a kind of
database (a config file) locally for his own use in which he records
conventional prefixes on the go.
