when delivering over smtp, do not require the other server to announce the 8bitmime extension unless in pedantic mode
all relevant systems nowadays should be accepting "8-bit" messages. before this
change, we would fail delivery for 8bit messages when the remote server doesn't
announce the 8bitmime smtp extension.  even though that system would likely
just accept our message.

also, there's a good chance the non-8bitmime-supporting system is some
intermediate minimal mail server like openbsd spamd, which was fixed to
announce the 8bitmime extension in the past year.

in theory, we could rewrite the message to be 7bit-only if it is a mime
message. but it's probably not worth the trouble.  also see

as alternative to PR #287 by mattanja (who also reported the issue on matrix),
thanks!
