By default, notmuch won't try to decrypt on indexing. With this
patch, we make it possible to indicate a per-database preference using
the config variable "index.try_decrypt", which by default will be
false.
At indexing time, the database needs some way to know its internal
defaults for how to index encrypted parts. It shouldn't be contingent
on an external config file (since that can't be retrieved from the
database object itself), so we store it in the database.
This behaves similarly to the query.* configurations, which are also
stored in the database itself, so we're not introducing any new
dependencies by requiring that it be stored in the database.
If we see index options that ask us to decrypt when indexing a
message, and we encounter an encrypted part, we'll try to descend into
it.
If we can decrypt, we add the property index.decryption=success.
If we can't decrypt (or recognize the encrypted type of mail), we add
the property index.decryption=failure.
Note that a single message may have both values of the
"index.decryption" property: "success" and "failure". For example,
consider a message that includes multiple layers of encryption. If we
manage to decrypt the outer layer ("index.decryption=success"), but
fail on the inner layer ("index.decryption=failure").
Because of the property name, this will be automatically cleared (and
possibly re-set) during re-indexing. This means it will subsequently
correspond to the actual semantics of the stored index.
This allows us to create new properties that will be automatically set
during indexing, and cleared during re-indexing, just by choice of
property name.
