"git commit --author=$name" sets the author to one whose name
matches the given string from existing commits, when $name is not in
the "Name <e-mail>" format. However, it does not honor the mailmap
to use the canonical name for the author found this way.

Fix it by telling the logic to find a matching existing author to
honor the mailmap, and use the name and email after applying the
mailmap.

Hey,
So I kept clear_mailmap() where you put it, but I think it could be moved
right after get_revision(). That is because I think format_commit_message()
will run another read_mailmap() with an heap-allocated string_list.
Anyway, I'm not sure it makes a big difference here.

Thanks,
Antoine
