Maildir synchronization
This patch allows bi-directional synchronization between maildir
flags and certain tags. The flag-to-tag mapping is defined by flag2tag
array.
The synchronization works this way:
1) Whenever notmuch new is executed, the following happens:
o New messages are tagged with configured new_tags.
o For new or renamed messages with maildir info present in the file
name, the tags defined in flag2tag are either added or removed
depending on the flags from the file name.
2) Whenever notmuch tag (or notmuch restore) is executed, a new set of
flags based on the tags is constructed for every message and a new
file name is prepared based on the old file name but with the new
flags. If the flags differs and the old message was in 'new'
directory then this is replaced with 'cur' in the new file name. If
the new and old file names differ, the file is renamed and notmuch
database is updated accordingly.
The rename happens before the database is updated. In case of crash
between rename and database update, the next run of notmuch new
brings the database in sync with the mail store again.
