Daniel Kahn Gillmor d3964e81ac indexing: Change from try_decrypt to decrypt
the command-line interface for indexing (reindex, new, insert) used
--try-decrypt; and the configuration records used index.try_decrypt.
But by comparison with "show" and "reply", there doesn't seem to be
any reason for the "try" prefix.

This changeset adjusts the command-line interface and the
configuration interface.

For the moment, i've left indexopts_{set,get}_try_decrypt alone.  The
subsequent changeset will address those.

SYNOPSIS
========
**notmuch** **reindex** [*option* ...] <*search-term*> ...
DESCRIPTION
===========
Re-index all messages matching the search terms.
See **notmuch-search-terms(7)** for details of the supported syntax for
<*search-term*\ >.
The **reindex** command searches for all messages matching the
supplied search terms, and re-creates the full-text index on these
messages using the supplied options.
Supported options for **reindex** include
``--decrypt=(true|false)``
If true, when encountering an encrypted message, try to
decrypt it while reindexing. If decryption is successful,
index the cleartext itself. Be aware that the index is likely
sufficient to reconstruct the cleartext of the message itself,
so please ensure that the notmuch message index is adequately
protected. DO NOT USE ``--decrypt=true`` without
considering the security of your index.
See also ``index.decrypt`` in **notmuch-config(1)**.
