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.
