Some people use notmuch with non-maildir files, (for example, email
messages in MH format, or else cool things like using sluk[*] to suck
down feeds into a format that notmuch can index).
To better support uses like that, don't do any renaming for files that
are not in a directory named either "new" or "cur".

There's nothing in the current API documentation that would suggest
the behavior being tested here. Attempt to implement this could have
some nasty side effects, (such as notmuch_message_maildir_flags_to_tags
implicitly calling notmuch_message_tags_to_maildir_flags and maybe
even opening up some bad looping possibilities).
Much better to stick with what we have documented, which we believe will
actually be useful, (and easy enough to comprehend).
These needed to be changed to be brought up to the current state of
the maildir-sync tests. This includes style changes, but also the
elimination of any assumption about pre-existing message filenames,
(such as msg-003) which actually don't exist anymore.
Also, the known broken tests are changed to emit FAIL rather than
BROKEN simply to make them easier to fix, (so that they print the
current problems rather than hiding them).
Finally, an additional test is added to ensure that when a duplicate
file is added without flags, it doesn't invalidate flags from other
duplicates, (instead the flags are effectively merged).
Add maildir synchronization tests for multiple messages with the same
message-id. As this is not yet implemented in notmuch, some of these
teste are marked as BROKEN.
I use $(< ) operator to avoid fiddling with stripped trailing newlines
from test results which happens when output+=$(command) is used.
This change reworks these tests in several ways:
1. Bring tests into "new" test style preferring test_expect_equal over
test_expect_success in almost all cases.
2. Don't emit test results for intermediate items not actually being
tested, (things like "no new messages", "search for message",
etc.). Those things are already covered by existing tests such as
"basic" or "search" and only serve to obscure what's actually being
tested.
3. Change sense of the test showing failure to rename a file from
"new" to "cur" when "cur" doesn't exist.
In this case, notmuch should detect that this is not a maildir and
should not attempt to do any renaming of the file.
4. Extend dump/restore test to also exercise addition of tag, not just
removal.
Both items #3 and #4 above show shortcomings in the current
implementation. These are currently resulting in test results of FAIL
and indicate bugs that need to be fixed.
