When doing any decryption, if the notmuch database knows of any
session keys associated with the message in question, try them before
defaulting to using default symmetric crypto.
This changeset does the primary work in _notmuch_crypto_decrypt, which
grows some new parameters to handle it.
The primary advantage this patch offers is a significant speedup when
rendering large encrypted threads ("notmuch show") if session keys
happen to be cached.
Additionally, it permits message composition without access to
asymmetric secret keys ("notmuch reply"); and it permits recovering a
cleartext index when reindexing after a "notmuch restore" for those
messages that already have a session key stored.
Note that we may try multiple decryptions here (e.g. if there are
multiple session keys in the database), but we will ignore and throw
away all the GMime errors except for those that come from last
decryption attempt. Since we don't necessarily know at the time of
the decryption that this *is* the last decryption attempt, we'll ask
for the errors each time anyway.
This does nothing if no session keys are stashed in the database,
which is fine. Actually stashing session keys in the database will
come as a subsequent patch.
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.
