That was quick, thanks!

Please next time use `git am` to import the patch so that author and other
commit metadata is kept, or if you apply patches manually then commit with `git
--author` so that original author will be correct in the commit and your name
will be only in the committer field.

This was just a spelling fix so I don't care, but for other people doing more
significant contributions, getting the git authorship and having a PostgreSQL
contribution show up on their Gihub (or Gitlab profile, or in other tools that
read git commits) can be important and maybe the only reward/credit for those
doing open source on their free time.

Again, personally I don't care and I don't need Github credits for this, just
stating as general advice for a better contribution process in the future.
