We typically call checkpatch.pl through make lint which properly adds
the option to tell checkpatch that our lines may be 96 columns long.
However there's one mention of calling checkpatch directly and that
confuses people with complaints about overly long lines that exceed
80 columns.
The lint test that runs checkpatch (and with the right options)
can also be used on a per-directory basis, so offer that instead.

Substitute `Part` with `Step` on this file's headings and use present
tense instead of gerund.

Disabling SSL verification is far from optimal, but depending on the
circumstances may be the most practical way, so describe how to do
that instead of leaving users confused.
It's also not _that_ bad because git's hashing scheme should uncover
most attempts to tamper with code, either when checking signed tags
or when people push (and see lots of modified commits).
State the command in a way that isn't conductive to careless
copy & paste.

This patch does two things:
- The CLI and Git Cola sections contained some duplicated information
about pushing patches, which is now factored out into its own section.
- The draft workflow is now disabled, so that part has been reworded to
describe how to submit a private patch.

We generally try to stay away from ascribing attributes to (future)
devs. "Rookie guide" refers to the reader, while "tutorial" refers
to the material.
In the same spirit, move from "lessons" to "parts". It's not school :-)
