[PATCH V2 idlestat 04/12] Add 'patches' directory to the ignored list of files in .gitignore

The quilt tool is still widely used in conjunction with git, it needs a specific directory, by convention 'patches' to store the patches for the serie.

Add this directory in the .gitignore file, so we are no longer annoyed by this directory when we check the status of git reporting it as an untracked file.
