lib: Implement versioning in the database and provide upgrade function.
The recent support for renames in the database is our first time (since notmuch has had more than a single user) that we have a database format change. To support smooth upgrades we now encode a database format version number in the Xapian metadata. Going forward notmuch will emit a warning if used to read from a database with a newer version than it natively supports, and will refuse to write to a database with a newer version. The library also provides functions to query the database format version: notmuch_database_get_version to ask if notmuch wants a newer version than that: notmuch_database_needs_upgrade and a function to actually perform that upgrade: notmuch_database_upgrade
