lib: fix clang build

Browse source 
Long story short, fix build on recent (3.2+) clang.

The long story for posterity follows.

gcc 4.6 added new warnings about structs with greater visibility than
their fields. The warnings were silenced by adjusting visibility in

    Mark some structures in the library interface with visibility=default attribute.

Later on,

    lib: Add support for automatically excluding tags from queries

changed visibility of struct _notmuch_string_list for the same reason, and

commit 1a53f9f116

    lib: Add the exclude flag to notmuch_query_search_threads

split the struct _notmuch_string_list and its typedef
notmuch_string_list_t as a way to make a forward declaration for
_notmuch_thread_create().

The subtle difference was that the struct definition now had 'visible'
in it, while the typedef didn't, and it was within the #pragma GCC
visibility push(hidden) block. This went unnoticed, as the then common
versions of clang didn't care about this.

A later change in clang (I did not dig into when this change was
introduced) caused the following error:

CXX  -O2 lib/database.o
In file included from lib/database.cc:21:
In file included from ./lib/database-private.h:33:
./lib/notmuch-private.h:479:8: error: visibility does not match previous declaration
struct visible _notmuch_string_list {
       ^
./lib/notmuch-private.h:67:33: note: expanded from macro 'visible'
                                ^
./lib/notmuch-private.h:52:13: note: previous attribute is here
            ^
1 error generated.
make: *** [lib/database.o] Error 1

This is slightly misleading due to the reference to the #pragma. The
real culprit is the typedef within the #pragma.

We could just add 'visible' to the typedef, or move the typedef
outside of the #pragma, and be done with it, but juggle the
declarations a bit to accommodate moving the typedef back with the
struct, and keep the visibility attribute in one place.

The problem was originally reported by Simonas Kazlauskas
<s@kazlauskas.me> in id:20130418102507.GA23688@godbox but I was only
able to reproduce and investigate now that I upgraded clang.
