** [tickets:#7896] Better plaintext mail for commit notifications**

Our plaintext mail messages just send markdown without converting it to HTML.  So all plain text views will see some markdown formatting.  Commit notifications also include HTML tags in each commit message.  This is from the `summary = g.markdown_commit.convert(ci.message)` in `def send_notifications` rendering commit-markdown -> HTML.  (Before [#7825] the commit message text was just passed through without this step but that caused inadvertent markdown formatting for things like `__init__`, or `if (*pArray[j+1] > *pArray[j])`

Example of the HTML coming through in plain text: https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/pastebin/557b1ce16d19cd7007456025

I think a fix for this would have to include a way for commit notification logic to build the plain text version separately and pass that in to the mail functions.
