Fix and clean top .gitignore
PATCH 1/1 Fix and clean top .gitignore
Removed vmlinux* rule because it matches too many useful files, replacing it with rules matching filetype by filename (e.g. *.gz). Also unignored .mailmap from the top directory. Added a comment telling the user how to check for tracked files being ignored.
