[rancid] rancid extension to pass commit message

[Mischa Diehm]

Hi,

First of all thanks for this great and useful software. We use it
extensively and are very happy with it!

History for the diff: Since some time we use elasticsearch and logstash for
our central NOC log management system. To detect changes on our devices
(firewalls, routers, switches Š) we check for specific log lines and trigger
a rancid-run from there. Usually we see in the logline who has made the
change. To have this visible in our commit message and our mails received
from rancid I have extended rancid-run and control_rancid to be able to pass
a commit message like:

# rancid-run  -c "$msg³
(diff attached)

What do you think is this sth. useful and worth adding?

Cheers Mischa
