[PATCH QEMU HCI-8.0] b4: ship project defaults in .b4-config

[Vasileios Almpanis]

b4 fetches series from lore.kernel.org by default. To use it with our
list archive at lore.virtuozzo.com every developer had to set the same
handful of b4.* git config keys, plus two more to get the right
recipients on "b4 send" and one for the subject prefix.

b4 loads a .b4-config at the top of the tree as defaults for commands
run inside it, so put the archive URL masks, the default recipients and
the default subject prefix there.

I like the default better, i.e. --to is the list, --cc is the
maintainer(s).  I'll adjust it myself.

I'm wondering isn't it better to explicitly specify /qemu here?  It'll
probably make the search faster.
