emacs: Query Emacs display table to determine ellipsis stringHEADmaster
Emacs has a slot in its display table, 'selective-display, which it uses to store the character(s) it displays when text gets elided. This commit ensures notmuch does not assume that string is ‘...’ – instead, notmuch examines the display table and bases computations on its actual contents.
