[PATCH] make mailer.py able to use mappings on several to_addr fields

Hi all,

I am not sure I am posting to the right mailing list, but I did not find
anything specific to mailer.py nor to contrib hook-scripts. Maybe would you be
kind enough to forward to interested people.

One very useful case of mappings would be to have, say, several authors in
to_addr value so that the commit e-mail would be sent to all the e-mail
addresses of these authors. Something like

[project_foo]
for_repos = .*/repos
from_addr = %(author)s
to_addr = john sarah

[maps]
from_addr = [authors]
to_addr = [authors]

[authors]
john = jconnor_at_example.com
sarah = sconnor_at_example.com

With such a configuration, the current version of mailer.py would send "To:
john, sarah" to the SMTP server, because the string "john sarah" has no mapping
in [authors].
With the patch below, it is still possible to map values with white spaces in
other options than to_addr. Only when we get the value of to_addr, we first
expand all words with defined mappings, and then collate them back into one
string. We had to add an argument to Config.get, expand, which defaults to
False, and this method is called with expand=True when we want to get the value
of to_addr.

There is probably a better way to do that, more generic, and cleaner. Indeed, it
is the first time I read and write code in Python, so please be indulgent. But I
dare submit this patch to give an idea of what sort of improvement I meant.

Best regards,

Philippe Combes
