notmuch search: Remove the chunked-searching hack.

This was a poor workaround around the fact that the existing
notmuch_threads_t object is implemented poorly. It's got a fine
iterartor-based interface, but the implementation does all of the
work up-front in _create rather than doing the work incrementally
while iterating.

So to start fixing this, first get rid of all the hacks we had working
around this. This drops the --first and --max-threads options from the
search command, (but hopefully nobody was using them
anyway---notmuch.el certainly wasn't).
