[Bf-committers] Proposal: Add a git blame ignore file to the repo.

[Ankit]

Hello

The revision D9234 [1] has been committed [2].
The Tools/Git wiki page [3] has also been updated.

Please note a correction in the commands in the trailing mail: the file has
been renamed from `.gitblame-ignore-revs` to `.git-blame-ignore-revs`.

Cheers!
Ankit Meel
