Add 'notmuch count' command to show the count of matching messages

Getting the count of matching threads or messages is a fairly
expensive operation. Xapian provides a very efficient mechanism that
returns an approximate value, so use that for this new command.

This returns the number of matching messages, not threads, as that is
cheap to compute.
