Summary: add sequencial number in subject prefix

Initial Comment:
This patch for 'CookHeaders.py' add an ability to add a
sequencial number in the subject prefix. You can define
a subject prefix like:
   [listname %d]
Then, the subject line of delivered mail becomes:
   Subject: [listname 123] Hoge hoge
When someone replied this mail, mailman receives a
messages with:
   Subject: Re: [listname 123] Hoge hoge
Then, this patch removes [listname \d+] part and
deliver it with:
   Subject: [listname 124] Re: Hoge hoge
And next, another person replies with
   Subject: Re: [listname 124] Re: Hoge hoge
Then, (magically!) you get:
   Subject: [listname 125] Re: Hoge hoge
Not with Re: Re: Hoge hoge.

Looks like complicated but this patch has been working
well with Japanese-enhanced Mailman for more than a year.

Without %d, this patch works like current version, I
believe.
