test: signature verification during decryption (session keys)
When the user knows the signer's key, we want "notmuch show" to be

I wrote this test because I was surprised to see signature

The added tests here all pass with GPGME 1.12.0, but the final test
fails with 1.13.0, due to some buggy updates to GPGME upstream: see

This minor asymmetry with "notmuch show" is intentional. While both
tools always render the cleartext subject line when they know it (in

cli/show: emit new whole-message crypto status output
This allows MUAs that don't want to think about per-mime-part
cryptographic status to have a simple high-level overview of the
message's cryptographic state.
Sensibly structured encrypted and/or signed messages will work fine
with this. The only requirement for the simplest encryption + signing
is that the message have all of its encryption and signing protection
(the "cryptographic envelope") in a contiguous set of MIME layers at
the very outside of the message itself.
This is because messages with some subparts signed or encrypted, but
with other subparts with no cryptographic protection is very difficult
to reason about, and even harder for the user to make sense of or work
with.
For further characterization of the Cryptographic Envelope and some of
the usability tradeoffs, see here:
mime-node: track whole-message crypto state while walking the tree
Deliberately populate the message's cryptographic status while walking
the MIME tree from the CLI.
Note that the additional numchild argument added to _mime_node_create
is a passthrough needed to be able to adequately populate the crypto
state object.
cli: expose message-wide crypto status from mime-node
The mime node context (a per-message context) gains a cryptographic
status object, and the mime_node_t object itself can return a view on
that status to an interested party.
The status is not yet populated, and for now we can keep that view
read-only, so that it can only be populated/modified during MIME tree
traversal.
util/crypto: _notmuch_message_crypto: tracks message-wide crypto state
E-mail encryption and signatures reported by notmuch are at the MIME
part level. This makes sense in the dirty details, but for users we
need to have a per-message conception of the cryptographic state of
the e-mail. (see
https://dkg.fifthhorseman.net/blog/e-mail-cryptography.html for more
discussion of why this is important).
The object created in this patch is a useful for tracking the
cryptographic state of the underlying message as a whole, based on a
depth-first search of the message's MIME structure.
This object stores a signature list of the message, but we don't
handle it yet. Further patches in this series will make use of the
signature list.
emacs: Drop content-free "Unknown signature status" button
When we have not been able to evaluate the signature status of a given
MIME part, showing a content-free (and interaction-free) "[ Unknown
signature status ]" button doesn't really help the user at all, and
takes up valuable screen real-estate.
A visual reminder that a given message is *not* signed isn't helpful
unless it is always present, in which case we'd want to see "[ Unknown
signature status ]" buttons on all messages, even ones that don't have
a signing structure, but i don't think we want that.

test/emacs: revert invalid-from test to pre-86f89385 behaviour
To the best of my understanding, this original behaviour was what
Carl's homebrew parser produced. With commit 86f89385 Austin switched
to using GMime (2.6). This produced arguably worse results, but since
the input was bad, we could live with it. Now with GMime 3.0 we are
getting the original results again, and there is no reason to consider
this test broken.
configure: Ensure that GMime can extract session keys
GMime 3.0 and higher can extract session keys, but it will *not*
extract session keys if it was built with --disable-crypto, or if it
was built against GPGME version < 1.8.0.
Notmuch currently expects to be able to extract session keys, and
tests will fail if it is not possible, so we ensure that this is the
case during ./configure time.
Part of this feels awkward because notmuch doesn't directly depend on
gpg at all. Rather, it depends on GMime, and the current
implementation of GMime depends on GPGME for its crypto, and GPGME in
turn depends on gpg.
So the use of gpg in ./configure isn't actually introducing a new
dependency, though if a future version of GMime were ever to move away
from GnuPG, we might need to reconsider.

If either the moreutils or GNU parallel utility are available, run all

The design of the test suite makes this parallelization trivial.
tests: remove entangling corpus index optimization
The add_email_corpus test utility includes logic that tries to re-use
an index of the corpus if available. This was seemingly done as an
optimization, so that every test that uses the corpus didn't have to
create it's own index of the corpus. However, this has the perverse
side effect of entangling tests together, and breaks parallelization.
Forcing each test to do it's own index does increase the overall time
of the test slightly (~6%), but this will be more than made up for in
the next patch that introduces paraellization.
test/crypto: add_gnupg_home should have ultimate trust on "its own" key
The typical use case for gpg is that if you control a secret key, you
mark it with "ultimate" ownertrust.
The opaque --import-ownertrust mechanism is GnuPG's standard mechanism
to set up ultimate ownertrust (the ":6:" means "ultimate", for
whatever reason).
We adjust the test suite to match this change, inverting the sense of
one test: since the default is now that the user ID of the suite's own
key is valid, we change the test to make sure that the user ID is not
emitted when it is *not* valid.
