These various functions and data are all used only locally, so should
be marked static. Ensuring we get these right will avoid us accidentally
leaking unintended symbols through the library interface.
notmuch previously unconditionally checked mime parts for various
properties, but not for NULL, which is the case if libgmime encounters
an empty mime part.
Upon encounter of an empty mime part, the following is printed to
stderr (the second line due to my patch):
(process:17197): gmime-CRITICAL **: g_mime_message_get_mime_part: assertion `GMIME_IS_MESSAGE (message)' failed
Warning: Not indexing empty mime part.
This is probably a bug that should get addressed in libgmime, but for
not, my patch is an acceptable workaround.

If we had external users of this filter then they might expect some of
these macros to exist. But since this is just internal, that's just
unneeded noise.
With modern MIME attachments, we're already avoiding indexing the
attachments. But for old-school uuencoded data in the mail, we have
been directly indexing the encoded data as terms, (which is not useful
at all---nobody will ever ytry to search based on the seemingly random
uuencoded data).
Additionally, indexing a modestly large uuencoded file seems to make
Xapian go insane, (consuming *lots* of memory).
We fix both problems by detecting uuencoded content and not performing
any indexing of it.
In the presentation we often omit citations and signatures, but this
is not content that should be omitted from the index, (especially
when the citation detection is wrong---see cases where a line
beginning with "From" is corrupted to ">From" by mail processing
tools).
Instead of storing the complete message filename in the data portion
of a mail document we now store a 'direntry' term that contains the
document ID of a directory document and also the basename of the
message filename within that directory. This will allow us to easily
store multple filenames for a single message, and will also allow us
to find mail documents for files that previously existed in a
directory but that have since been deleted.
We carefully noted the fact that we had locally allocated the string
here, but then we neglected to free it. Switch to talloc instead
which makes it easier to get the behavior we want. It's simpler since
we can just call talloc_free unconditionally, without having to track
the state of whether we allocated the storage for name or not.
We never did export any interface to get at these, and when I went to
use these, I found them inadequate, (because I wanted to distinguish
address found in from: from those found in To:). Meanwhile, it was
easy enough to extract addresses with a search like:
notmuch show tag:sent | grep ^To:
so the storage of contact terms was just wasting space. Stop that.
