2621f6cef1 test: add a function to run Python tests
The new test_python() function makes writing Python tests a little easier:
- it sets the environment variables as needed
- it redirects stdout to the OUTPUT file (like test_emacs()).

This commit also declares python as an external prereq.

The stdout redirection is required to avoid trouble when running commands like
"python 'script' | sort > OUTPUT": in such a case, any error due to a missing
external prereq would be "swallowed" by sort, resulting to a failed test instead
of a skipped one.

07bb8b9e89 test/python: set LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PYTHONPATH to use local notmuch
Possibly this should be factored out into some kind of "run_python"
function.

6cca3a5c16 test: add tests for python bindings
We start modestly, with a (slightly modified) test case from Kazuo
Teramoto. Originally it just made sure the bindings didn't crash; here
we check that by comparing the output with that of notmuch search.
