[PATCH] checkpatch: Flag spam header (X-Spam-Report) to prevent spurious warnings

Spamassassin sticks a long (~79 character) long string after a
line that has a single space in it. The line with space causes
checkpatch to erroniously think that it's in the content body, as
opposed to headers and thus flag a mail header as an unwrapped long
comment line.

This flags when X-Spam-Report is found, till an e-mail
body indicator (blank line, /^[/n/r]*/) is found, blocking setting
$in_commit_log.  When found, unsets itself allowing the rest of
the detection to function normally.
