I prefer not to include tags which aren't listed in
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst, but I now see that some
bright spark added Co-Developed-by: to
Documentation/process/5.Posting.rst, so the two files are a)
duplicative and b) out of sync.

Co-Developed-by is a little more specific than signed-off-by, but not
usefully so, I suggest...
