add initial support for commit notifications to gotd(8)

At present only email notifications are implemented. Code for HTTP notifications is not yet finished, hence HTTP-related documentation remains hidden for now. This adds a new 'notify' process which has an "exec" pledge. It runs helper programs which implement the notification transport layer, such as got-notify-email which speaks SMTP. This design avoids having to link all of gotd with network libraries and related crypto libraries. Notification content is generated by the 'repo_write' process. Commit log messages and diffstats are written to a file which the 'notify' process will pass on to its helpers on stdin. The default output looks similar to 'got log -d'. If too many new commits are present the output looks similar to 'got log -s' instead. Tags always look like 'got tag -l'. The session process coordinates generation of notifications. It maintains a notification queue which holds one notification per updated reference, and passes notification requests from this queue to the 'repo_write' process for notification content creation and then to the 'notify' process for notification delivery. Only one notification can be in flight at a time to avoid file descriptor starvation if many references get updated in a single client session. ok op@
