.patch file highlighted as mail

[0x5c]

Description of the problem or steps to reproduce

A .patch file will be highlighted as mail if it starts with the patch magic line:

From {commit hash} Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

(The date and time is exactly Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 for all patches)

One would expect micro to first try highlighting that file with the patch filetype since it has the .patch extension. But micro instead highlights it as mail since it matches the header rule for mail.
