Subject: [PATCH] lib: add return status to database close and destroy

notmuch_database_close may fail in Xapian ->flush() or ->close(), so
report the status. Similarly for notmuch_database_destroy which calls
close.

This is required for notmuch insert to report error status if message
indexing failed.
