Added Danger file to lint commit messages

This Dangerfile ensures that commit authors write good commit messages.
We also prevent the use of Emoji, since these add no value and may not
always be displayed properly.

Merge commits are currently ignored. In the future we most likely want
to stop using these, but this is a separate discussion, hence we ignore
them for the time being.

The rules enforced by this Dangerfile are based on the article found at
https://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/. For more information, refer to
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/50003.

## Commit message standards
One or more commit messages do not meet our Git commit message standards.
For more information on how to write a good commit message, take a look at
[How to Write a Git Commit Message](https://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/).
Here is an example of a good commit message:
Reject ruby interpolation in externalized strings
When using ruby interpolation in externalized strings, they can't be
detected. Which means they will never be presented to be translated.
To mix variables into translations we need to use `sprintf`
instead.
Instead of:
_("Hello \#{subject}")
Use:
_("Hello %{subject}) % { subject: 'world' }
This is an example of a bad commit message:
updated README.md
This commit message is bad because although it tells us that README.md is
updated, it doesn't tell us why or how it was updated.
MARKDOWN
end
end
if git.commits.length > 10 && !ce_upstream?
warn(
'This merge request includes more than 10 commits. ' \
'Please rebase these commits into a smaller number of commits.'
)
