mailinfo: always clean up rfc822 header folding

Without the "-k" option, mailinfo will convert a folded
subject header like:

  Subject: this is a
    subject that doesn't
    fit on one line

into a single line. With "-k", however, we assumed that
these newlines were significant and represented something
that the sending side would want us to preserve.

For messages created by format-patch, this assumption was
broken by a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header lines,
2011-02-23).  For messages sent by arbitrary MUAs, this was
probably never a good assumption to make, as they may have
been folding subjects in accordance with rfc822's line
length recommendations all along.

This patch now joins folded lines with a single whitespace
character. This treats header folding purely as a syntactic
feature of the transport mechanism, not as something that
format-patch is trying to tell us about the original
subject.
