b7ac4c05e1 gmime-cleanup: drop all arguments unused in GMime 3
This means dropping GMimeCryptoContext and notmuch_config arguments.

All the argument changes are to internal functions, so this is not an
API or ABI break.

We also get to drop the #define for g_mime_3_unused.

096d45a878 gmime-cleanup: remove obsolete gpg_path configuration option and crypto contexts
Note that we do keep ignoring the gpg_path configuration option,
though, to avoid breakage of existing installations.  It is ignored
like any other unknown configuration option, but we at least document
that it is ignored so that people who find it in their legacy configs
can know that it's safe to drop.

152b6cac5d util: make remaining headers includable from C++
libnotmuch_util.a is supposed to be usable from the library and the
CLI, but much the library is compiled as C++. Add in appropriate
wrapping to prevent symbol mangling. These wrappers already existed in
string-util.h; it seems better to be consistent.

d137170b23 crypto: record whether an actual decryption attempt happened
In our consolidation of _notmuch_crypto_decrypt, the callers lost
track a little bit of whether any actual decryption was attempted.

Now that we have the more-subtle "auto" policy, it's possible that
_notmuch_crypto_decrypt could be called without having any actual
decryption take place.

This change lets the callers be a little bit smarter about whether or
not any decryption was actually attempted.

e4890b5bf9 crypto: new decryption policy "auto"
This new automatic decryption policy should make it possible to
decrypt messages that we have stashed session keys for, without
incurring a call to the user's asymmetric keys.

798aa789b5 lib: convert notmuch decryption policy to an enum
Future patches in this series will introduce new policies; this merely
readies the way for them.

We also convert --try-decrypt to a keyword argument instead of a boolean.

a990585408 crypto: use stashed session-key properties for decryption, if available
When doing any decryption, if the notmuch database knows of any
session keys associated with the message in question, try them before
defaulting to using default symmetric crypto.

This changeset does the primary work in _notmuch_crypto_decrypt, which
grows some new parameters to handle it.

The primary advantage this patch offers is a significant speedup when
rendering large encrypted threads ("notmuch show") if session keys
happen to be cached.

Additionally, it permits message composition without access to
asymmetric secret keys ("notmuch reply"); and it permits recovering a
cleartext index when reindexing after a "notmuch restore" for those
messages that already have a session key stored.

Note that we may try multiple decryptions here (e.g. if there are
multiple session keys in the database), but we will ignore and throw
away all the GMime errors except for those that come from last
decryption attempt.  Since we don't necessarily know at the time of
the decryption that this *is* the last decryption attempt, we'll ask
for the errors each time anyway.

This does nothing if no session keys are stashed in the database,
which is fine.  Actually stashing session keys in the database will
come as a subsequent patch.

5f2832ae21 crypto: add _notmuch_crypto_decrypt wrapper function
We will use this centralized function to consolidate the awkward
behavior around different gmime versions.

It's only invoked from two places: mime-node.c's
node_decrypt_and_verify() and lib/index.cc's
_index_encrypted_mime_part().

However, those two places have some markedly distinct logic, so the
interface for this _notmuch_crypto_decrypt function is going to get a
little bit clunky.  It's worthwhile, though, for the sake of keeping
these #if directives reasonably well-contained.

a18bbf7f15 crypto: make shared crypto code behave library-like
If we're going to reuse the crypto code across both the library and
the client, then it needs to report error states properly and not
write to stderr.

197d67959b crypto: move into libnotmuch_util
This prepares us for using the crypto object in both libnotmuch and
the client.
