Subject: doc/format-patch: adjust Thunderbird MUA hint to new add-on

There are three tips how to compose a non-line-wrapped patch with
Thunderbird. The first one suggests use of an add-on. The one
referenced has long been superseded by a different one. Update the
link to the new one. Mention that additional configuration is
required to make the add-on work.

+https://addons.thunderbird.net/thunderbird/addon/toggle-line-wrap
+It adds a button "Line Wrap" to the composer's toolbar
 that you can tick off. Now you can compose the message as you otherwise do
 (cut + paste, 'git format-patch' | 'git imap-send', etc), but you have to
 insert line breaks manually in any text that you type.
 
+As a bonus feature, the add-on can detect patch text in the composer
+and warns when line wrapping has not yet been turned off.
