build(commitlint): make the scope optional

In all TF-A commit messages, the first line must comply to the
following format:

  type(scope): description

Although the conventional commits specification says that the scope
above is optional, we have made it mandatory in TF-A and the following
error message is printed if no scope is provided:

  scope may not be empty [scope-empty]

However, this can be too restrictive for some types of commits. For
example, it is typically hard to choose a scope for documentation
patches which modify several documents of different natures.

Lift this restriction in the tools and leave it up to the developer to
decide whether a scope is needed or not.
