d47e184118 cli/dump: bump dump format version to 3
No changes to the format of the body, but the header format was
fixed, and version 2 headers probably shouldn't be relied on.

ef763a9e8b doc: whitespace cleanup
In most part, our .rst documents are indented with 8 spaces instead
of tabs. Bring the rest of the lines to the same format.
Also, on one (supposedly empty) line, trailing spaces were removed.

b7345d277e CLI: add properties to dump output
Part of providing extensibility via properties is to make sure that user
data is not lost. Thus we need to be able to dump and restore
properties.

e042a25a3f CLI: add optional config data to dump output.
Note that it changes the default dump output format, but doesn't break
existing notmuch-restore. It might break user scripts though.

3c13bc0321 dump: support gzipped and atomic output
The main goal is to support gzipped output for future internal
calls (e.g. from notmuch-new) to notmuch_database_dump.

The additional dependency is not very heavy since xapian already pulls
in zlib.

We want the dump to be "atomic", in the sense that after running the
dump file is either present and complete, or not present.  This avoids
certain classes of mishaps involving overwriting a good backup with a
bad or partial one.

d736260385 doc: convert sphinx based docs
This is the output from sphinx-quickstart, massaged a bit, along with
our existing man pages converted to rst.

A skeleton notmuch-emacs manual is also included. It is not suitable
for end user use yet.
