All of the *-am-ready-mbox functions expect inline patches to have a
'[... PATCH ...]' in the subject. In cases where a patch is sent
without that prefix, a piem-am caller gets an unhelpful "Could not
find am-ready mbox for current buffer" in response to
piem-am-ready-mbox returning nil.
To support these (hopefully rare) cases, drop the "has patch prefix?"
guard from all the *-am-ready-mbox functions. A caller is requesting
to extract a patch from the current buffer, and the "is the current
buffer in the right mode?" check should be sufficient for an
am-ready-mbox function to decide whether it should be responsible for
generating the mbox.
This added flexibility increases a caller's ability to apply invalid
patches. As with the previously possible cases, the output buffer
will give a clear error, but the caller will need to abort the git-am
sequence and clean up the branch. That seems reasonable given that,
in addition to the initial explicit request, an interactive piem-am
caller needs to "confirm" applying through the prompts, making it more
difficult to get to that state unintentionally.
