emacs: make headings outline-minor-mode compatible
`outline-minor-mode' treats comments that begin with three or more
semicolons as headings. That makes it very convenient to navigate
code and to show/hide parts of a file.
Elips libraries typically have four top-level sections, e.g.:
;;; notmuch.el --- run notmuch within emacs...
;;; Commentary:...
;;; Code:...
;;; notmuch.el ends here
In this package many libraries lack a "Commentary:" section, which is
not optimal but okay for most libraries, except major entry points.
Depending on how one chooses to look at it, the "... ends here" line
is not really a heading that begins a section, because it should never
have a "section" body (after all it marks eof).
If the file is rather short, then I left "Code:" as the only section
that contains code. Otherwise I split the file into multiple sibling
sections. The "Code:" section continues to contain `require' and
`declare-function' forms and other such "front matter".
If and only if I have split the code into multiple sections anyway,
then I also added an additional section named just "_" before the
`provide' form and shortly before the "...end here" line. This
section could also be called "Back matter", but I feel it would be
distracting to be that explicit about it. (The IMO unnecessary but
unfortunately still obligatory "... ends here" line is already
distracting enough as far as I am concerned.)
Before this commit some libraries already uses section headings, some
of them consistently. When a library already had some headings, then
this commit often sticks to that style, even at the cost inconsistent
styling across all libraries.
A very limited number of variable and function definitions have to be
moved around because they would otherwise end up in sections they do
not belong into.
Sections, including but not limited to their heading, can and should

test/T360-symbol-hiding.sh: trim extra output from readelf
readelf on (at least) ppc64le sometimes generates some extension to
the Ndx name inside '[]'. Remove this output to allow our simple
column based parsing to work.

lib: factor out feature name related code.
database.cc is uncomfortably large, and some of the static data

This is a somewhat small piece to factor out, but it will turn out to
be helpful to further refactoring.

test/T360-symbol-hiding: use readelf in place of nm
It turns out that using nm -P isn't as portable as hoped. In
particular with some ELF ABIs (e.g. ppc64 ELFv1), the desired symbols
end up in the data section instead of text.
The test is currently only functional on ELF based architectures, so I
think it's legit to depend on readelf instead of nm.
The switch to readelf has the advantage that we can explicitely ask
for all of the symbols with global visibility, rather than grepping
for notmuch. That seems a more robust approach since it will catch any
strangely named global symbols.

build/docs: move docstring prereq to file targets
Under a sufficiently high level of parallelism [1] there seems to be a
a race condition that allows sphinx-build to start running before the
docstrings are extracted. This change moves the docstring stamp from
the phony targets sphinx-html and sphinx-info to the file targets that
they depend on. I'm not sure why this makes things better, but I am
fairly confident it does not make things worse, and experimentally it
seems to eliminate the race condition.

emacs: avoid binding unnamed commands in keymaps
One should never bind unnamed commands in keymaps because doing that
makes it needlessly hard for users to change these bindings.
Replace such anonymous bindings with named commands that are generated
using macros and some boilerplate. Using macros is better than using a
simple loop because that makes it possible for `find-function' to find
the definitions. Eat your boilerplate--it forms character.
Admittedly this approach is quite ugly and it might be better to teach
the original commands to support different buffers directly instead of
requiring wrapper commands to do just that.
Never-the-less as a short-term solution this is better than what we
had before.

Inline a simplified version of `notmuch-documentation-first-line'

removed function in that it returns nil instead of the empty string

ultimately used as an argument to `concat', which treats nil like
the empty string. So we can do the logical thing without changing
the behavior.
