Subject: [PATCH] Check for 'formail' in 'quilt mail'

To allow using 'procmail' (which contains 'formail') as weak dependency in
package managers, explicitely check for the 'formail' binary when invoking
'quilt mail' so that the user gets a clear error message when 'formail'
is missing and knows what to do.
