format-patch: autonumber by default

format-patch is most commonly used for multiple patches at once when
sending a patchset, in which case we want to number the patches; on
the other hand, single patches are not usually expected to be
numbered.

In other words, the typical behavior expected from format-patch is the
one obtained by enabling autonumber, so we set it to be the default.

Users that want to disable numbering for a particular patchset can do
so with the existing -N command-line switch.  Users that want to
change the default behavior can use the format.numbering config key.
