	[ Synopsis: Updates to send-pr.html to support MIME ]

Don't use attachments.  MIME is evil.  Copy/paste the patch in the
report.  There are people out there that do not have MIME-aware MUA's
and you'll break the nice query-pr command that developers can use in
freefall to read the entire text of a PR.

	freefall% query-pr -F 27653 | more

If you use base64/quoted-printable or some other exotic encoding of
the attached patch, the above command will be pretty useless.
