This commit fixes an issue where adding `fixup` commits was triggering a lint error. The problem was caused by the fact that we used the entire message body while checking whether `fixup` commit has a corresponding "parent" commit in a range. This issue was found after enforcing a check that exits the process if there is an invalid commit message found (4341743b4a).

Currently the `commit-message` validation script does not exit
with a non-zero exit code if the commit message validation failed.
This means that invalid commit messages are currently not
causing CI to be red. See: https://circleci.com/gh/angular/angular/686008

Prior to this change we manage a local version of commit message validation
in addition to the commit message validation tool contained in the ng-dev
tooling. By adding the ability to validate a range of commit messages
together, the remaining piece of commit message validation that is in the
local version is replicated.
We use both commands provided by the `ng-dev commit-message` tooling:
- pre-commit-validate: Set to automatically run on an git hook to validate
commits as they are created locally.
- validate-range: Run by CI for every PR, testing that all of the commits
added by the PR are valid when considered together. Ensuring that all
fixups are matched to another commit in the change.
