This replaces two instances of Xapian::Query::MatchAll with the
equivalent but thread-safe alternative Xapian::Query(std::string()).
Xapian::Query::MatchAll maintains an internal pointer to a refcounted
Xapian::Internal::QueryTerm.
None of this is thread-safe but that wouldn't be an issue if
Xapian::Query::MatchAll wasn't static. Because it's static, the
refcounting goes awry when Notmuch is called from multiple threads.
This is actually documented by Xapian:
4715de3a9f/xapian-core/include/xapian/query.h (L65)
While static, Xapian::Query::MatchNothing is safe because it doesn't
maintain an internal object and as such, doesn't use references.
Two best-effort tests making use of TSan were added to showcase the
issue (I couldn't figure out a way to deterministically reproduce it
without making an unmaintainable mess).
First, when two databases are created in parallel, a query that uses
Xapian::Query::MatchAll is made (lib/query.cc), resulting in the
following backtrace on a segfault:

(lib/regexp-fields.cc), resulting in the following backtrace on a

Printing Xapian::Query::MatchAll->internal.px->_refs in these
circumstances can help quickly identifying this scenario.
This is motivated by some test frameworks (like Rust's Cargo) that
runs unit tests in parallel and would easily encounter this issue,
unless client code gates every call to Notmuch behind a lock.
This is what can be expected from the tests when they fail:

_notmuch_message_remove_all_properties wasn't syncing the message back
to the database but was still invalidating the metadata, giving the
impression the properties had actually been removed.
Also move the metadata invalidation to _notmuch_message_remove_terms
to be closer to what's done in _notmuch_message_modify_property and
_notmuch_message_remove_term.
Previously we just crashed with an internal error. With this change,
the caller can handle it better. Update notmuch-new so that it doesn't
crash with "unknown error code" because of this change.
The call to delete_document can throw exceptions (and can happen in
practice [1]), so catch the exception and extract the error
message. As a side effect, also move the call to _n_m_has_term inside
the try/catch. This should not change anything as that function
already traps any Xapian exceptions.

By sharing the existing logic used by the sexp query parser, this
allows negative lastmod revisions to be interpreted as relative to the
most recent revision.
This will permit the re-use of the same logic in the infix query
parser. The location of the shared code in the infix side is for
consistency with the other shared parsing logic. It will make more
sense when a Xapian field processor is added for the lastmod prefix.
There is some duplication of code here, but not all of the locations
valid to find a database make sense to create. Furthermore we nead two
passes, so the control flow in _choose_database_path would get a bit
convoluted.
This makes the error handling available for re-use. Using
g_mkdir_with_parents also handles the case of a pre-existing
directory. This introduces new functionality, namely creating the
parent directories, which will be useful for creating directories like
'.local/share/notmuch/default'.
Fix the bug reported at [1].
The parameter expansion for regex and wildcard modifiers has to be
done a bit differently, because their arguments are not s-expressions
defining complete Xapian queries.

In order for a database to actually be writeable, it must be the case that it
is open, not just the correct type of Xapian object. By explicitely
checking, we are able to provide better error reporting, in particular
for the previously broken test in T566-lib-message.
Make the behaviour when passed NULL consistent with
notmuch_filenames_valid. The library already passes the result of
notmuch_message_get_tags without checking for NULL, so it should be
handled.
a1d139de ("lib: add sexp: prefix to Xapian (infix) query parser.",
2022-04-09) introduced sfsexp infix queries. This requires the infix
preprocessor to be built in in a way which does not require sfsexp when
notmuch is built without it.
Make the preprocessor throw a Xapian error in this case (and fix the
build).

Since Xapian does not preserve quotes when passing the subquery to a
field processor, we have to make a guess as to what the user
intended. Here the added assumption is that a string surrounded by
parens is not intended to be a phrase.
This changes makes the sexp query parser consistent with the infix one
in ignoring trailing '/'. Here we do a bit better and ignore any
number of trailing '/'.
This resolves an old bug reported by David Edmondson in 2014. The fix
is only needed for the "boolean" case, as probabilistic / phrase
searching already ignores punctuation.
This fix is only for the infix (xapian provided) query parser.

The default argument processing overlaps somewhat with what is already
done in _notmuch_date_strings_to_query, but we can give more specific
error messages for the s-expression context.
The extra generality of _sexp_parse_range will be useful when we
implement additional range prefixes (at least 'lastmod' is needed).
Commit [0] left the stemmer object accessible, but did not add
de-allocation code to notmuch_database_destroy. This commit corrects
that oversight.

In [1] Austin Ray reported some memory leaks in
notmuch_database_open. One of those leaks is caused by jumping to the
next key without freeing val. This change avoids that leak.

If we know the configuration is split, but there is no mail root
defined, this indicates a (lack of) configuration error. Currently
this can only arise in XDG configurations.
The extra talloc struct "local" was left over from before the notmuch
struct was allocated earlier. Having the notmuch struct available in
this function will allow more flexibility to track the configuration
variations (e.g. split vs. non-split).
It makes perfect sense for users to want to pre-create .notmuch,
e.g. to install hooks, so we should handle the case of a .notmuch
directory without an actual xapian database more gracefully.
Unlike the previous g_key_file_get_value, this version processes
escape codes for whitespace and \. The remaining two broken tests from
the last commit are because "notmuch config get" treats every value as
a list, and thus the previously introduces stripping of leading
whitespace applies.
If the user passed a path, and we opened it, then we consider that
definitive definition of "database.path". This makes libnotmuch
respond more gracefully to certain erroneous combinations of
NOTMUCH_CONFIG settings and config file contents.
