patches: replace non-ASCII punctuation with ASCII equivalents

Em-dashes (U+2014), en-dashes (U+2013), and arrow glyphs (U+2192, U+2194) leaked into commit messages and the cover letter. Linux kernel patches are expected to be plain ASCII. Substitute: -- for em-dash - for en-dash -> for rightward arrow <-> for left-right arrow Applied to both staging-prep-series/ (Mobian paths) and staging-prep-series-danctnix/ (drivers/staging/bes2600/ paths). checkpatch.pl --no-tree --strict: 0/0/0 on all 12 patches.
