doc: clean up boolean vs. probabilistic prefixes
sphinx-build emits a minor warning:
[...]doc/man7/notmuch-search-terms.rst:223: WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.
And the tabular representation of boolean or probabilistic prefixes
currently renders like this when i view it in man:
┌───────────────────────────┬────────────────────────────┐
│Boolean │ Probabilistic │
└───────────────────────────┴────────────────────────────┘
│ tag: id: │ from: to: │
│ │ │
│ thread: folder: │ subject: attach‐ │
│ path: │ ment: mimetype: │
└───────────────────────────┴────────────────────────────┘
This isn't just ugly: it's confusing, because it seems to imply that
some of the prefixes in the left-hand column are somehow related to
specific other prefixes in the right-hand column.
The Definition List representation introduced by this patch should be
simpler for readers to understand, and doesn't have the warning.
