f12fb4d819 cli/show: If a leaf part has children, show them instead of omitting
Until we did PKCS#7 unwrapping, no leaf MIME part could have a child.

Now, we treat the unwrapped MIME part as the child of the PKCS#7
SignedData object.  So in that case, we want to show it instead of
deliberately omitting the content.

This fixes the test of the protected subject in
id:smime-onepart-signed@protected-headers.example.

b14d9ae204 smime: tests of X.509 certificate validity are known-broken on GMime < 3.2.7
When checking cryptographic signatures, Notmuch relies on GMime to
tell it whether the certificate that signs a message has a valid User
ID or not.

If the User ID is not valid, then notmuch does not report the signer's
User ID to the user.  This means that the consumer of notmuch's
cryptographic summary of a message (or of its protected headers) can
be confident in relaying the reported identity to the user.

However, some versions of GMime before 3.2.7 cannot report Certificate
validity for X.509 certificates.  This is resolved upstream in GMime
at https://github.com/jstedfast/gmime/pull/90.

We adapt to this by marking tests of reported User IDs for
S/MIME-signed messages as known-broken if GMime is older than 3.2.7
and has not been patched.

If GMime >= 3.2.7 and certificate validity still doesn't work for
X.509 certs, then there has likely been a regression in GMime and we
should fail early, during ./configure.

To break out these specific User ID checks from other checks, i had to
split some tests into two parts, and reuse $output across the two
subtests.

9055dfdae4 tests: disable CRL checks from gpgsm
GPGME has a strange failure mode when it is in offline mode, and/or
when certificates don't have any CRLs: in particular, it refuses to
accept the validity of any certificate other than a "root" cert.

This can be worked around by setting the `disable-crl-checks`
configuration variable for gpgsm.

I've reported this to the GPGME upstream at
https://dev.gnupg.org/T4883, but I have no idea how it will be
resolved.  In the meantime, we'll just work around it.

Note that this fixes the test for verification of
id:smime-multipart-signed@protected-headers.example, because
multipart/signed messages are already handled correctly (one-part
PKCS#7 messages will get fixed later).

9829533e92 index: avoid indexing legacy-display parts
When we notice a legacy-display part during indexing, it makes more
sense to avoid indexing it as part of the message body.

Given that the protected subject will already be indexed, there is no
need to index this part at all, so we skip over it.

If this happens during indexing, we set a property on the message:
index.repaired=skip-protected-headers-legacy-display

27b25e45dc test: avoid showing legacy-display parts
Enigmail generates a "legacy-display" part when it sends encrypted
mail with a protected Subject: header.  This part is intended to
display the Subject for mail user agents that are capable of
decryption, but do not know how to deal with embedded protected
headers.

This part is the first child of a two-part multipart/mixed
cryptographic payload within a cryptographic envelope that includes
encryption (that is, it is not just a cleartext signed message).  It
uses Content-Type: text/rfc822-headers.

That is:

A └┬╴multipart/encrypted
B  ├─╴application/pgp-encrypted
C  └┬╴application/octet-stream
*   ╤ <decryption>
D   └┬╴multipart/mixed; protected-headers=v1 (cryptographic payload)
E    ├─╴text/rfc822-headers; protected-headers=v1 (legacy-display part)
F    └─╴… (actual message body)

In discussions with jrollins, i've come to the conclusion that a
legacy-display part should be stripped entirely from "notmuch show"
and "notmuch reply" now that these tools can understand and interpret
protected headers.

You can tell when a message part is a protected header part this way:

 * is the payload (D) multipart/mixed with exactly two children?
 * is its first child (E) Content-Type: text/rfc822-headers?
 * does the first child (E) have the property protected-headers=v1?
 * do all the headers in the body of the first child (E) match
   the protected headers in the payload part (D) itself?

If this is the case, and we already know how to deal with the
protected header, then there is no reason to try to render the
legacy-display part itself for the user.

Furthermore, when indexing, if we are indexing properly, we should
avoid indexing the text in E as part of the message body.

'notmuch reply' is an interesting case: the standard use of 'notmuch
reply' will end up omitting all mention of protected Subject:.

The right fix is for the replying MUA to be able to protect its
headers, and for it to set them appropriately based on headers found
in the original message.

If a replying MUA is unable to protect headers, but still wants the
user to be able to see the original header, a replying MUA that
notices that the original message's subject differs from the proposed
reply subject may choose to include the original's subject in the
quoted/attributed text. (this would be a stopgap measure; it's not
even clear that there is user demand for it)

This test suite change indicates what we want to happen for this case
(the tests are currently broken), and includes three additional TODO
suggestions of subtle cases for anyone who wants to flesh out the test
suite even further.  (i believe all these cases should be already
fixed by the rest of this series, but haven't had time to write the
tests for the unusual cases)

1c704dd22d cli/reply: pull proposed subject line from the message, not the index
Protected subject lines were being emitted in reply when the cleartext
of documents was indexed.  create_reply_message() was pulling the
subject line from the index, rather than pulling it from the
GMimeMessage object that it already has on hand.

This one-line fix to notmuch-reply.c solves that problem, and doesn't
cause any additional tests to fail.

06dedd0a83 test: reply (in cli and emacs) should protect indexed sensitive headers
These tests are currently broken!  When a protected subject is indexed
in the clear, it leaks in the reply headers :(

For emacs, we set up separate tests for when the protected header is
indexed in the clear and when it is unindexed.  neither case should
leak, but the former wasn't tested yet.

We will fix the two broken tests in a subsequent patch.

b36248a26e test: protected headers should work when both encrypted and signed.
Up to this point, we've tested protected headers on messages that have
either been encrypted or signed, but not both.

This adds a couple tests of signed+encrypted messages, one where the
subject line is masked (outside subject line is "Subject Unavailable")
and another where it is not (outside Subject: matches inner Subject:)

See the discussion at
https://dkg.fifthhorseman.net/blog/e-mail-cryptography.html#protected-headers
for more details about the nuances between signed, stripped, and
stubbed headers.

b7b553e732 cli/reply: ensure encrypted Subject: line does not leak in the clear
Now that we can decrypt headers, we want to make sure that clients
using "notmuch reply" to prepare a reply don't leak cleartext in their
subject lines.  In particular, the ["reply-headers"]["Subject"] should
by default show the external Subject.

A replying MUA that intends to protect the Subject line should show
the user the Subject from ["original"]["headers"]["Subject"] instead
of using ["reply-headers"]["Subject"].

This minor asymmetry with "notmuch show" is intentional.  While both
tools always render the cleartext subject line when they know it (in
["headers"]["Subject"] for "notmuch show" and in
["original"]["headers"]["Subject"] for "notmuch reply"), "notmuch
reply" should never leak something that should stay under encrypted
cover in "reply-headers".

56416a5470 cli/show: add information about which headers were protected
The header-mask member of the per-message crypto object allows a
clever UI frontend to mark whether a header was protected (or not).
And if it was protected, it contains enough information to show useful
detail to an interested user.  For example, an MUA could offer a "show
what this message's Subject looked like on the wire" feature in expert
mode.

As before, we only handle Subject for now, but we might be able to
handle other headers in the future.
