doc: suggest using pre-inst-env for git-send-email on foreign distros
On foreign distros, not using pre-inst-env when using git-send-email results
in a backtrace ending with: no code for module (guix ui)
This can be confusing as users did not have to use pre-inst-env to use
git-send-email before.
* doc/contributing.texi (Sending a Patch Series): add a note to suggest using
pre-inst-env when calling git-send-email on foreign distros.
