Commit message improvements

This may be buried somewhere on DTN, but I did not find it in the obvious place https://developer.thunderbird.net/thunderbird-development/fixing-a-bug#commit-messages.

A short paragraph like this would be helpful.

The commit message text should describe the change that was made rather than the bug it fixes.

Example:

  • Bug - Unable to use GPG smartcards on macOS
  • Bad commit message: Fix broken smartcards on macOS
  • Good commit message: Enable loading unsigned shared libraries on macOS
