Remove the superfluous mode argument given to notmuch_database_create
fixing the creation of notmuch databases using python code.

Now that notmuch_database_find_message_by_filename works on read-only
databases, remove the workaround that disabled it on read-write
databases.
This also adds a regression test for find_message_by_filename.
notmuch_database_get_directory no longer returns an error for
read-only databases, so remove ReadOnlyDatabaseError from the list of
get_directory exceptions.
notmuch_database_get_directory now returns
NOTMUCH_STATUS_READ_ONLY_DATABASE on its own (rather than crashing) so
the workaround in Database.get_directory is no longer necessary.
Put a prominent warning into the docstring of Database.close, make the
function show up in the sphinx doc and refer to the warning in the
paragraph mentioning the context manager protocol.

Move the Directory class into its own file, merge the two Filenames
classes into one, deprecate Filenames.as_iterator, update the
documentation accordingly.

Fix the indentation within the docstring, remove useless remarks, do
some trivial refactoring.

Raise specific error classes instead of a generic NotmuchError with an
magic status value (e.g. NotmuchError(STATUS.NULL_POINTER) ->
NullPointerError()), update the documentation accordingly.

Rename Database.__del__ to Database.close, move it just below the open
function and call close() in a newly created destructor just below the
constructor.

Before 3434d1940 the return values of libnotmuch functions were
declared as c_void_p and the code checking for errors compared the
returned value to None, which is the ctypes equivalent of a NULL
pointer.
But said commit wrapped all the data types in python classes and the
semantic changed in a subtle way. If a function returns NULL, the
wrapped python value is falsish, but no longer equal to None.
Recent changes introduced lots of unicodification of strings, mostly in
the form of .decode('utf-8', errors='ignore'). However, python 2.5 does
not like the errors keyword argument and complains. It does work when
used as a simple arg though, so that's what this patch does.

Now that types are checked correctly, we also need to make sure that all the
arguments actually are instances of these types. Otherwise the function calls
will fail and raise an exception similar to this one:
ctypes.ArgumentError: argument 3: <type 'exceptions.TypeError'>: expected
LP_LP_NotmuchMessageS instance instead of pointer to c_void_p
Add type information to the ctypes._FuncPtr wrappers and
use the wrapper classes instead of c_void_p for pointers
to notmuch_*_t.
This enables the ctypes library to type check parameters
being handed to functions from the notmuch library.

Remove code duplication by using the new helper function. Also raise the
new fine grained exceptions in many cases, rather than the more generic
NotmuchErrors.
