a6b0772b60 util/crypto: add information about the payload part
When walking the MIME tree, if we discover that we are at the
cryptographic payload, then we would like to record at least the
Subject header of the current MIME part.

In the future, we might want to record many other headers as well, but
for now we will stick with just the Subject.

See
https://dkg.fifthhorseman.net/blog/e-mail-cryptography.html#cryptographic-envelope
for more description of the Cryptographic Payload vs. the
Cryptographic Envelope.

80728a95e6 cli/show: emit headers after emitting body
This paves the way for emitting protected headers after verification

73cebe6e72 test: report summary even when aborting
In certain cases of test suite failure, the summary report was not
being printed.  In particular, any failure on the parallel test suite,
and any aborted test in the serialized test suite would end up hiding
the summary.

It's better to always show the summary where we can (while preserving
the return code).  If we do abort due to this high-level failure,
though, we should also announce to the user that we're doing so as
close to the end of the process as possible, to make it easier to find
the problem.

4cb789aa09 cli/show: emit new whole-message crypto status output
This allows MUAs that don't want to think about per-mime-part
cryptographic status to have a simple high-level overview of the
message's cryptographic state.

Sensibly structured encrypted and/or signed messages will work fine
with this.  The only requirement for the simplest encryption + signing
is that the message have all of its encryption and signing protection
(the "cryptographic envelope") in a contiguous set of MIME layers at
the very outside of the message itself.

This is because messages with some subparts signed or encrypted, but
with other subparts with no cryptographic protection is very difficult
to reason about, and even harder for the user to make sense of or work
with.

For further characterization of the Cryptographic Envelope and some of
the usability tradeoffs, see here:

2c08beb254 cli: expose message-wide crypto status from mime-node
The mime node context (a per-message context) gains a cryptographic
status object, and the mime_node_t object itself can return a view on
that status to an interested party.

The status is not yet populated, and for now we can keep that view
read-only, so that it can only be populated/modified during MIME tree
traversal.

74919c226e util/crypto: _notmuch_message_crypto: tracks message-wide crypto state
E-mail encryption and signatures reported by notmuch are at the MIME
part level.  This makes sense in the dirty details, but for users we
need to have a per-message conception of the cryptographic state of
the e-mail.  (see
https://dkg.fifthhorseman.net/blog/e-mail-cryptography.html for more
discussion of why this is important).

The object created in this patch is a useful for tracking the
cryptographic state of the underlying message as a whole, based on a
depth-first search of the message's MIME structure.

This object stores a signature list of the message, but we don't
handle it yet.  Further patches in this series will make use of the
signature list.

9300defd64 emacs: Drop content-free "Unknown signature status" button
When we have not been able to evaluate the signature status of a given
MIME part, showing a content-free (and interaction-free) "[ Unknown
signature status ]" button doesn't really help the user at all, and
takes up valuable screen real-estate.

A visual reminder that a given message is *not* signed isn't helpful
unless it is always present, in which case we'd want to see "[ Unknown
signature status ]" buttons on all messages, even ones that don't have
a signing structure, but i don't think we want that.

Amended by db to drop the unused initialization of 'label'

75bdce7952 lib: support user prefix names in term generation
This should not change the indexing process yet as nothing calls

it should not break anything either.

_notmuch_database_prefix does a linear walk of the list of (built-in)
prefixes, followed by a logarithmic time search of the list of user
prefixes. The latter is probably not really noticable.

This will be used to avoid needing a database access to resolve a db

about indexing rather than querying, but we currently don't have any
other indexing setup to do.

97939170b3 n_m_remove_indexed_terms: reduce number of Xapian API calls.
Previously this functioned scanned every term attached to a given
Xapian document. It turns out we know how to read only the terms we
need to preserve (and we might have already done so). This commit
replaces many calls to Xapian::Document::remove_term with one call to
::clear_terms, and a (typically much smaller) number of calls to
::add_term. Roughly speaking this is based on the assumption that most
messages have more text than they have tags.

According to the performance test suite, this yields a roughly 40%
speedup on "notmuch reindex '*'"

3563079be3 test-lib.sh: colors to test output when parallel(1) is run on tty

    (args may disable colors with --no-color)

  - [ -t 1 ] is checked before forking subshell

2669117ad7 configure: make _check_session_keys work with an as-needed linker
When using a promiscuous linker, _check_session_keys was working fine.

But some OSes (including some versions of Ubuntu) have set their
linker to always link in "--as-needed" mode, which means that the
order of the objects linked is relevant.  If a library is loaded
before it is needed, that library will no longer be linked in the
final outcome.  _check_session_keys.c was failing on those systems.

7546fd9cf6 configure: better error handling on session key check.
There are a few changes bundled here:

 * say "No." explicitly if there's a failure.

 * try to avoid implying that gpgme-config is necessary to build
   notmuch itself (it's not, though it may be useful if you need to
   rebuild gmime).

 * leave _check_session_keys and _check_session_keys.c around if

   for debugging.

 * let error messages show when _check_session_keys.c is built.

f4708ce0b1 test/emacs: revert invalid-from test to pre-86f89385 behaviour
To the best of my understanding, this original behaviour was what
Carl's homebrew parser produced. With commit 86f89385 Austin switched
to using GMime (2.6). This produced arguably worse results, but since
the input was bad, we could live with it. Now with GMime 3.0 we are
getting the original results again, and there is no reason to consider
this test broken.

30c4fa3702 configure: Ensure that GMime can extract session keys
GMime 3.0 and higher can extract session keys, but it will *not*
extract session keys if it was built with --disable-crypto, or if it
was built against GPGME version < 1.8.0.

Notmuch currently expects to be able to extract session keys, and
tests will fail if it is not possible, so we ensure that this is the
case during ./configure time.

Part of this feels awkward because notmuch doesn't directly depend on
gpg at all.  Rather, it depends on GMime, and the current
implementation of GMime depends on GPGME for its crypto, and GPGME in
turn depends on gpg.

So the use of gpg in ./configure isn't actually introducing a new
dependency, though if a future version of GMime were ever to move away
from GnuPG, we might need to reconsider.

Note that this changeset depends on
id:20190506174327.13457-1-dkg@fifthhorseman.net , which supplies the
rfc822 message test/corpora/crypto/basic-encrypted.eml used in it.

591388ccd1 tests: remove entangling corpus index optimization
The add_email_corpus test utility includes logic that tries to re-use
an index of the corpus if available.  This was seemingly done as an
optimization, so that every test that uses the corpus didn't have to
create it's own index of the corpus.  However, this has the perverse
side effect of entangling tests together, and breaks parallelization.

Forcing each test to do it's own index does increase the overall time
of the test slightly (~6%), but this will be more than made up for in
the next patch that introduces paraellization.

7d48604157 test/crypto: add_gnupg_home should have ultimate trust on "its own" key
The typical use case for gpg is that if you control a secret key, you
mark it with "ultimate" ownertrust.

The opaque --import-ownertrust mechanism is GnuPG's standard mechanism
to set up ultimate ownertrust (the ":6:" means "ultimate", for
whatever reason).

We adjust the test suite to match this change, inverting the sense of
one test: since the default is now that the user ID of the suite's own
key is valid, we change the test to make sure that the user ID is not
emitted when it is *not* valid.
