17b09af228 emacs: In search mode, truncate authors using invisible text.
Rather than discarding authors when truncated to fit the defined
column width, mark the text beyond the end of the column as invisible
and allow `isearch' to be used over the text so hidden.

This allows us to retain the compact display whilst enabling a user to
find the elided text.

fc37771a71 emacs: Allow the display of absolute dates in the header line.
Add `notmuch-show-relative-dates' to control whether the summary line
in `notmuch-show' mode displays relative dates (e.g. '26 mins. ago') or
the full date string from the message. Default to `t' for
compatibility with the previous behaviour.

35343710a2 emacs: Bind <backtab> (shift-TAB) to notmuch-show-previous-button
Shift-TAB is standard "opposite" of TAB -- in GUI interfaces they
typically cycle through input elements in opposite orders -- so it
makes sense to behave the same way.

This lets us pick up later changes to widget-keymap if the user

`widget-keymap', according to its help.

This enables the nifty '?' key binding to work in notmuch-hello

c9eb047c6c emacs: Reuse rather than reinvent message header filtering
In notmuch-mua-reply we were filtering out the Subject and To headers
manually in a loop, but message mode offers a nice function for
exactly that. Simplify the code by using it. Also, as notmuch-mua-mail
already sorts and hides headers that we want sorted and hidden, we can
safely remove those 2 functions from here as well.  Also remove the
(require 'cl), the only reason for its existence was the now removed
"loop" function.

251d57f56b emacs: Allow tuning of the tag/saved search layout.
Add `notmuch-column-control', which has three potential sets of
values:

- t: automatically calculate the number of columns per line based on
  the tags to be shown and the window width,
- an integer: a lower bound on the number of characters that will be
  used to display each column,
- a float: a fraction of the window width that is the lower bound on
  the number of characters that should be used for each column.

So:
- if you would like two columns of tags, set this to 0.5.
- if you would like a single column of tags, set this to 1.0.
- if you would like tags to be 30 characters wide, set this to
  30.
- if you don't want to worry about all of this nonsense, leave
  this set to `t'.

fc73737ff5 Easier way to define a fcc directory
In the common case that a user only has one FCC (save outgoing mail in
the Mail directory, it is now possible to simply configure a string
such as "Sent" in the notmuch-fcc-dirs variable. More complex options,
depending on a users email address, are possible and described in the
variable customization help text.

33765e5c2e Add a test case for the previous commit.
The commit said it fixed a problem with headers >200 characters
long. But examination of the code suggests that it was a header of
exactly 200 characters long that caused the problem. So we add a test
case for that here.

Before the fix in the previous commit, valgrind would detect many
errors when replying to the message created with this test case. After
that commit, those errors are gone.

1671eaecdb notmuch: Fix off-by-one errors if a header is >200 characters long.
If a single header is more than 200 characters long a set of 'off by
one' errors cause memory corruption.

When allocating memory with:
     a = malloc (len);
the last usable byte of the memory is 'a + len - 1' rather than 'a +
len'.

Fix the same bug when calculating the current offset should the buffer
used for collecting the output header need to be reallocated.

1d528f890a Makefile: Improve the "what to do now" message from "make install"

not how to just run the notmuch command-line interface, (which, as it

ecfc8df476 INSTALL/README: Clean up the description of how to run the emacs interface.
The INSTALL file still had old information about the "make

pointers on how to develop a real interface, (which is not the right
thing since README should be addressed to users, not coders).

So remove the stale and misplaced information, and instead add a new
"Running notmuch" section to the README describing how to run the
notmuch command-line interface and how to run the emacs interface.

c50524efd5 python: have docs reflect current return value behavior
Database.find_message() used to be able to reliably indicate whether a
message exists or not (in which case it returns None). However, the
recent API change of the notmuch library means we will return None
even for all Xapian exceptions, which happens e.g. when the current
Database has been modified by another project. Therefore the return
value of None cannot be reliably be used to indicate whether a message
exists or not. Make the docs state that explicitely.
