Bug Description

After the upload-notifications branch is landed, Soyuz emails will contain a footer saying:

You are receiving this email because you are the uploader, maintainer or
signer of the above package.

which is good, but not optimal. It's best if the rationale is customised based
on the recipient. We have a helper class INotificationRecipientSet that can
be used to implement this.

See also bug #3797.

There are essentially three separate implicit subscriptions here, one for uploader, one for maintainer, one for signer, and if we had a notification service doing the actual sending this would just fall out from that.
