Add prefix completion for query and property, with value completion
for query. Apparently there's no way to get at the available
properties in the cli.
Many of the external links found in the notmuch source can be resolved
using https instead of http. This changeset addresses as many as i
could find, without touching the e-mail corpus or expected outputs
found in tests.
Add support for completing --help, --uuid=, and --version after the
subcommand. Do not support shared options at the top level yet due to
difficulties in handling options with arguments.
--uuid necessitates adding 'compopt -o nospace' also to notmuch new
completion, but that just brings it in line with the rest.
Use the new notmuch address command to do completion for addresses in
from: and to:. Use --output=sender for both for efficiency, even
though --output=recipients would be more accurate for to: prefix
completion.
This moves address-related functionality from search command to the
new address command. The implementation shares almost all code and
some command line options.
Options --offset and --limit were intentionally not included in the
address command, because they refer to messages numbers, which users
do not see in the output. This could confuse users because, for
example, they could see more addresses in the output that what was
specified with --limit. This functionality can be correctly
reimplemented for address subcommand later.
Also useless values of --exclude flag were not included in the address
command.
This was inspired by a patch from Jani Nikula.
The new outputs allow printing senders, recipients or both of matching
messages. To print both, the user can use --output=sender and
--output=recipients simultaneously.
Currently, the same address can appear multiple times in the output.
The next commit will change this. For this reason, tests are
introduced there.
We use mailbox_t rather than InternetAddressMailbox because we will
need to extend it in a following commit.
This code is based on a patch from Jani Nikula.
The completion script depends on bash-completion 1.90 or later, with
_init_completion function. If that's not present, for some reason, the
completion currently fails with an ugly message, messing up user's
command line:
$ notmuch -bash: _init_completion: command not found
It's better to just not complete
Rewrite the bash completion script to actually do something
useful. Supported completions:
* All the notmuch commands, command line arguments, and values for
keyword arguments.
* Tags after + and - in 'notmuch tag'.
* Config options in 'notmuch config', and some config option values.
* Search prefixes in all commands that use search terms.
* Tags after tag: prefix in search terms.
* User's email addresses after from: and to: in search terms.
This is all based on the bash-completion package [1], and will not
work without it.

The original "contrib" name is lousy. Everything in notmuch has been
contributed, and we are integrating as much of it as possible, (rather
than making users grub through contrib looking for useful pieces to
install).
Meanwhile, the only things we have in contrib are command-line
completion scripts, so "completion" makes more sense as a name, (and
helps make "./configure" slightly less ambiguous).
