lib/cli: Make notmuch_database_get_directory return a status code
Previously, notmuch_database_get_directory had no way to indicate how
it had failed. This changes its prototype to return a status code and
set an out-argument to the retrieved directory, like similar functions
in the library API. This does *not* change its currently broken
behavior of creating directory objects when they don't exist, but it
does document it and paves the way for fixing this. Also, it can now
check for a read-only database and return
NOTMUCH_STATUS_READ_ONLY_DATABASE instead of crashing.
In the interest of atomicity, this also updates calls from the CLI so
that notmuch still compiles.

The output of the HTML reply test in the emacs suite can vary

Sometimes, notmuch reply outputs something to stderr, for example:

go: Update to the current notmuch_database_find_message API
The signature of notmuch_database_find_message was changed in 02a30767
to report errors and the Go bindings were never updated. This brings
the Go bindings in sync with that change and at least makes them
compile with Go r60.3, the last release before Go 1.
Put a prominent warning into the docstring of Database.close, make the
function show up in the sphinx doc and refer to the warning in the
paragraph mentioning the context manager protocol.
python: deprecate code formatting messages as text and json
This code adds functionality at the python level that is unlikely to
be useful for anyone. Furthermore the python bindings strive to be a
thin wrapper around libnotmuch, so this code will be removed in
notmuch 0.14.
Cleanup the code, reword the docstring and use the same implementation
in the Threads, Tags and Messages classes.
__nonzero__ implements truth value testing. If __nonzero__ is not
implemented, the python runtime would fall back to `len(..) > 0` thus
exhausting the iterator.

emacs-show: open excluded matches if no other matches
Currently emacs show does not open matching but excluded
messages. This is normally the desired behaviour but is probably not
ideal if only excluded messages match. This patch opens all the
matching (necessarily excluded) messages in this case and goes to the
first one.
A previous patch [0] replaced blank subject lines with '[No Subject]'
in search and show mode. Apparently this was needed to circumvent
some bug in the printing code, but there was no need for it search or
show, and it is definitely not desirable, so we undo it here (a revert
is no longer feasible). We should not be modifying strings in the
original message without good reason, or without a clear indication
that we are doing so, neither of which apply in this case. For
further discussion see [0].

Formerly notmuch_database_close closed the xapian database and
destroyed the talloc structure associated with the notmuch database
object. Split notmuch_database_close into notmuch_database_close and
notmuch_database_destroy.
This makes it possible for long running programs to close the xapian
database and thus release the lock associated with it without
destroying the data structures obtained from it.
This also makes the api more consistent since every other data
structure has a destructor function.

new: Fix missing end_atomic in remove_filename on error
Previously, if we failed to find the message by filename in
remove_filename, we would return immediately from the function without
ending its atomic block. Now this code follows the usual goto DONE
idiom to perform cleanup.
This was going to stdout. I removed the newline at the beginning of
printing the fatal error message because it wouldn't make sense if you
were only looking at the stderr stream (e.g., you had redirected
stdout to /dev/null).
Previously, fatal errors in add_files_recursive were not treated as
fatal by its callers (including itself!). This makes
add_files_recursive errors consistently fatal and updates all callers
to treat them as fatal.
emacs: modify help message for notmuch-search-line-faces to reflect preferred "deleted" tag name.

lib: work around talloc_steal usage from C++ code
Implicit typecast from 'void *' to 'T *' is okay in C, but not in
C++. In talloc_steal, an explicit cast is provided for type safety in
some GCC versions. Otherwise, a cast is required. Provide a template
function for this to maintain type safety, and redefine talloc_steal
to use it.
The template must be outside the extern "C" block (NOTMUCH_BEGIN_DECLS
and NOTMUCH_END_DECLS), but keep it within the GCC visibility #pragma.
No functional changes, apart from making the library build with
compilers other than recent GCC.
Record dependencies during build instead of before
Previously, the makefile created dependency files in a separate, first
pass. In particular, include-ing the dependency files would cause
make to attempt to rebuild those files using the dependency-generation
rules in the makefile. Unfortunately, this approach required obtuse
rules and silently delayed the start of the build process (by quite a
bit on a clean tree without any dependency files). Worse, this
required the dependency files to themselves depend on all of the
headers the source file depended on, which meant that, if a header
file was removed, the depedency file could not be updated because of a
missing dependency (!), which would cause make to silently fail.
This patch eliminates the dependency generation rules and instead
generates dependency files as a side-effect of the regular build rule.
On the first build, we don't need to know the dependencies beforehand;
the object file doesn't exist, so it will be built anyway. On
subsequent builds, if a header file is updated, the dependency rules
generated by the previous build will force a rebuild. If a source
file is updated, the dependency rules may be stale, but it doesn't
matter because the updated source file will force a rebuild.
In the final case above, the stale dependency rules may refer to a
header file that no longer exists but is also no longer needed. In
order to prevent this from breaking the build, we also pass gcc the
-MP option, which generates phony targets for every depended-on header
file, so make won't complain if it can't find them during a later
build.
emacs: include tags from excluded messages in tag tab completion
The new message exclude functionality will hide tags that only exist
on excluded messages. However, one might very well want to manually
modify excluded tags. This makes sure tags from excluded messages are
always available in tab completion.
