Use message body for merge request descriptionjprovazn-description
When a merge request is created from email, use message body as merge request description. If message body is empty then merge request description is still created from the source branch commit (if there is only single commit in the merge request). If message body is empty and there are multiple commits in the source branch, then merge request description is left empty. Closes #40968
