meta-oe: README.md: Improve send-email command

Add -M30% -C --find-copies-harder to the git send-email example in
README.md so that git format-patch detects renames and copies more
aggressively.

Patches that move or copy files then show only the changed lines
instead of full file deletions and additions, which makes them
smaller and easier to review.
