This patch makes it possible to convert subdirectory names inside the
spool directory into message tags. Messages stored in subdirectory
"foo" will be marked with tag "foo". Message duplicates found in several
subdirectories will be given one tag per subdirectory.
This feature can be used to synchronize notmuch's tags with with gmail
tags, for example. Gmail IMAP servers convert tags to IMAP
subdirectories and those subdirectories can be converted back to tags
in notmuch.
The patch modifies notmuch_database_add_message function to return a
pointer to the message even if a message duplicate was found in the
database. This is needed if we want to add a tag for each subdirectory
in which a message duplicate was found.
In addition to that, it makes the pointer to notmuch_config_t global
(previously it was a local variable in notmuch_new_command). The
configuration data structure is used by the function which converts
subdirectory names to tags.
Finally, there is a new function called subdir_to_tag. The function
extracts the name of the subdirectory inside the spool from the full
path of the message (also removing Maildir's cur,dir,and tmp
subdirectories) and adds it as a new tag to the message.
