This allows us to reuse the old bors@rust-lang.org commit author e-mail, thus retaining compatibility with various tools that scan rust-lang/rust git history and expect the old bors e-mail.

Use the old homu bors e-mail address again

Now that new bors knows how to use the old homu e-mail address (rust-lang/bors#614), we can revert to the old address. I modified the code to keep compatibility with both addresses, so that everything should still work for every merged commit in the past few days. In a few weeks/months, we could remove the temporary bors e-mail address, as at that point no one will likely care about these few merged commits anymore.

Should not be merged until rust-lang/bors#614 is deployed, although the current version in `main` should already mostly work with both addresses, except for CI postprocessing statistics.

Should be backported.
