e845f4e27e emacs: Simplify subjects more aggressively.
Remove 're: ' or 'Re: ' from anywhere within a subject line rather
than just at the beginning. This is to accommodate threads where a
mailing list sometimes inserts a subject prefix.

For example, if a thread has the subjects:

    [Orgmode] org-indent, org-inlinetask: patches on github
    Re: [Orgmode] org-indent, org-inlinetask: patches on github
    [Orgmode] Re: org-indent, org-inlinetask: patches on github

the last of these would not have been considered the same and would
therefore have been shown.

7171e77d4d Don't use kill-this-buffer to kill notmuch emacs buffers
kill-this-buffer appears to be a function intended specifically for
use in the menu bar, and causes problem killing notmuch buffers when
multiple frames have been used.  This patch replaces kill-this-buffer
with notmuch-kill-this-buffer, which in turn just simply calls
(kill-buffer (current-buffer)).

81d3bd3670 Rename "notmuch cat" to "notmuch show --format=raw"
This is part of an effort to avoid proliferation of excessive
top-level notmuch commands. Also, "raw" better captures the
functionality here, (as opposed to "cat" which is a fairly oblique
reference to a bad Unix abbreviation whose metaphor doesn't work here
since "notmuch cat" operates only on a single message and hence cannot
"con'cat'enate" anything).

fe9e163f19 emacs: Access raw messages via cat subcommand
This patch modifies the following commands to access the messages via
cat subcommand:
- view/save attachments ('v', 'w'),
- view a raw message ('V') and
- pipe a message to a command ('|').

With this patch, it is straightforward to use notmuch emacs interface
with a remote database accessed over SSH. To do this, it is sufficient
to redefine notmuch-command variable to contain the name of a script
containing:

    ssh user@host notmuch "$@"

If the ssh client has enabled connection sharing (ControlMaster option
in OpenSSH), the emacs interface is almost as responsive as when
notmuch is invoked locally.

c506e1034b emacs: Avoid runtime use of `cl'.
The GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual section D.1 says:

> *  Please don't require the cl package of Common Lisp extensions at
>    run time. Use of this package is optional, and it is not part of
>    the standard Emacs namespace. If your package loads cl at run time,
>    that could cause name clashes for users who don't use that package.
>
>    However, there is no problem with using the cl package at compile
>    time, with (eval-when-compile (require 'cl)). That's sufficient for
>    using the macros in the cl package, because the compiler expands
>    them before generating the byte-code.

Follow this advice, requiring the following changes where `cl' was
used at runtime:

- replace `rassoc-if' in `notmuch-search-buffer-title' with the `loop'
  macro and inline code. At the same time find the longest prefix
  which matches the query rather than simply the last,
- replace `union', `intersection' and `set-difference' in
  `notmuch-show-add-tag' and `notmuch-show-remove-tag' with local code
  to calculate the result of adding and removing a list of tags from
  another list of tags.

159b05fcaa emacs: Fix `notmuch-show-rewind' in the presence of invisible text
When determining whether or not to re-align the head of the current
message with the top of the window, use `count-screen-lines' rather
than `count-lines' to allow for invisible text in the preceding
message. When comparing that number of lines against
`next-screen-context-lines', realign if the number of lines of the
previous message visible is 'smaller than or equal to' rather than
just 'smaller than' to improve usability.

75b9b028ea emacs: Correct message/header/citation/signature hiding
Set `buffer-invisibility-spec' to `nil' (a list) if it is just `t'
before inserting any body parts, otherwise removing items from
`buffer-invisibility-spec' (which is what
`notmuch-show-headers-visible' and `notmuch-show-message-visible' do)
is a no-op and has no effect. This caused threads with only matching
messages to have those messages hidden initially because
`buffer-invisibility-spec' stayed `t'.

opens the messages that are closed---it doesn't simultanesously close

b57d9635f5 emacs: Use single-quote not double-quote when constructing search
Commit 44982ab332 added some extra
quoting when constructing a search. A previous version of this patch
had used single-quotation marks (') while this version used
double-quotation marks (").

The intent of the extra quoting was to allow notmuch-command to be set
to a script invoking ssh.

What actually happens, however is that the extra quotation marks make
it all the way into the query string seen by Xapian. And the double
quotes trigger phrase searching, (which isn't desired here). The
side-effect of that is that the emacs code would fallback to an
unqalified query and display all threads with all messages open.

We fix that side-effect now by using single-quote characters, but
we'll want a better fix in the future to avoid Xapian seeing these
characters at all I think.

Use the mailcap functionality to guess a MIME type for attachments of

b825204f0d emacs: Remove the notmuch-show-toggle-body command (with "b" binding)
In the recent switch to a JSON-based emacs interface, RET now toggles
message visibility anywhere in the message, (rather than only on the
summary line). So we no longer need this separate "b" binding for this.

Additionally, the body toggle was implemented independently from RET,
so after hiding a message with "b" one could not make it visible with
RET. This confusing state is now no longer possible, (since the
:body-visible property is removed entirely).

9193455fa1 notmuch.el: quote args in notmuch-show to facilitate remote use
Put single-quotes around the argument of the `show --entire-thread' command
in notmuch-show. This change should have no effect on normal usage.
However, it allows us to use the notmuch.el client with a remote notmuch
binary and database over ssh (by, e.g., setting `notmuch-command' to a
simple shell script). Without the quotes, ssh will not send the command
properly.

One very simple example script is as follows. (Note that it requires
keypair login to the ssh server.)

        #!/bin/sh

        SSH_BIN="/path/to/local/ssh"
        NOTMUCH_HOST="my.remote.server"
