This changes some error reporting, either intentionally by reporting
the highest level missing directory, or by side effect from looking in
XDG locations when given null database location.
This adds new state variable for the mail root, and uses it most
places db_path was used. The notable exception is dumps from
backups. The latter will be dealt with properly in a future commit.
The main functionality will be tested when notmuch-new is converted to
support split configuration. Here only the somewhat odd case of split
mail root which is actually symlinked to the database path is tested.
Introduce a new configuration value for the mail root, and use it to
locate mail messages in preference to the database.path (which
previously implied the mail messages were also in this location.
Initially only a subset of the CLI is tested in a split
configuration. Further changes will be needed for the remainder of the
CLI to work in split configurations.
The idea is to allow reuse in n_d_create_with_config. This is
primarily code movement, with some changes in error messages to reduce
the number of input parameters.
This is slightly more tidy, but more importantly it allows for re-use
of this code in n_d_create_with_config. That re-use will be crucial
when we no longer call n_d_open_with_config from
n_d_create_with_config.
This removes duplication between the struct element and the
configuration string_map entry. Create a simple wrapper for setting
the database path that makes sure the trailing / is stripped.
In order to open the database in main() for this command, we may need
to re-open it in the (possibly less common) case where crypto options
require write access.
This fixes a bug reported in [1]. In principle it could be possible
avoid one of these reopens, but it complicates the logic in main with
respect to creating new databases.

Recent changes to configuration handling meant the pre-new hook was
run while the database was open read only, limiting what could be done
in the hook. Add some known broken tests for this problem, as well as
a regression test for write access from the post-new hook.
In the future Xapian will apparently support this more conveniently
for the cases other than READ_ONLY => READ_ONLY
Conceptually this function seems to fit better in lib/open.cc;
database.cc is still large enough that moving the function makes
sense.
This will allow re-opening in a different mode (read/write
vs. read-only) with current Xapian API. It will also prove useful when
updating the compact functions to support more flexible database
location.
Include the (currently unused) mode argument which will specify which
mode to re-open the database in. Functionality and docs to be
finalized in a followup commit.
In [1] Gregor Zattler explained the results of his hard work
tracking down a bug in notmuch with long directories. This test
duplicates the bug.

This is the result of running
$ uncrustify --replace --config devel/uncrustify.cfg *.c *.h
in the top level source directory
Line breaks were then adjusted manually to keep argc and argv
together.
Fix use of $TEST_DIRECTORY ($NOTMUCH_BUILDDIR/test/) with use of
$TMP_DIRECTORY ($NOTMUCH_BUILDDIR/test/tmp.T020-compact/ in case
of T020-compact.sh) as root directory where to write test files
and directories.
The assignment of thread-ids is (apparently) non-deterministic in a
way that mostly seems to show up on multicore machines. In my tests
the number is different from that previously assumed by this test
about 15% of the time on a 50 thread (25 core) Xeon.
Since message id's are fixed, use a message known to be in the thread
of interest to pick out the correct thread-id.
Based on a patch from Michael J Gruber [1]. As of glib 2.67 (more
specifically [2]), including "gmime-extra.h" inside an extern "C"
block causes build failures, because glib is using C++ features.
Observing that "gmime-extra.h" is no longer needed in
notmuch-private.h, which can simply delete that include, but
we have to correspondingly move the includes which might include
it (in particular crypto.h) out of the extern "C" block also.
This seems less fragile than only moving gmime-extra, and relying on
preprocessor sentinels to keep the deeper includes from happening.
Move to the include to the outside of the extern block.

This is the last bit of "python" left in the notmuch codebase.
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/#recommendation encourages
"third-party distributors" to use more-specific shebang lines. I'm
not certain that the notmuch project itself is a "third-party
contributor" but I think this is a safe way to encourage people to use
python3 when they're developing notmuch.
We already have python3 explicitly elsewhere in the codebase for
developers (in nmbug).

Remove STORED IN DATABASE discussion, describe search rules.
Currently profiles seem a bit pointless. They will make more sense
when they apply to databases as well.
This enables support for hooks outside the database directory.
It relies strongly on configuration information being usable between
closing the database and destroying it.
The hook directory configuration needs to be kept in synch with the
other configuration information, so add scaffolding to support this at
database opening time.
In addition to the same type of changes as converting other
subcommands, add the possibility of creating a database at the top
level. It would probably make sense to use this for insert as well.
