test-lib: Add dummy subject to force empty subject
At the moment, the test-lib fills in any missing headers. This makes
it impossible to test our handling of empty subjects. This will
allow us to use a special dummy subject -- `@FORCE_EMPTY` -- to force
the subject to remain empty.

thread.cc: Avoid empty thread names if possible.
Currently the thread is named based on either the oldest or newest
matching message (depending on the search order). If this message has
an empty subject, though, the thread will show up with an empty
subject in the search results. (See the thread starting with
`id:1412371140-21051-1-git-send-email-david@tethera.net` for an
example.)
This changes the behavior so it will use a non-empty name for the
thread if possible. We name threads based on (a) non-empty matches for
the query, and (b) the search order. If the search order is
oldest-first (as in the default inbox) it chooses the oldest matching
non-empty message as the subject. If the search order is newest-first
it chooses the newest one.

We generally do not support mbox files, but for historical reasons
we've supported single-message mbox files, with a deprecation

emacs: `with-current-notmuch-show-message' should not leak `coding-system-for-read'
`with-current-notmuch-show-message' applies a `no-conversion' coding
system when reading a raw message from notmuch. That coding system
should _not_ be applied when the body of the macro is evaluated, as it
can cause file operations used during that evaluation to incorrectly
apply the `no-conversion' coding system.
This was discovered when a user's .signature file contained non-ASCII

system was applied to the reading of the .signature file, resulting in
raw rather than UTF-8 interpretation of the data.

lib: Remove unnecessary thread linking steps when using ghost messages

lib: Implement ghost-based thread linking
This updates the thread linking code to use ghost messages instead of
user metadata to link messages into threads.
In contrast with the old approach, this is actually correct.
Previously, thread merging updated only the thread IDs of message
documents, not thread IDs stored in user metadata. As originally
diagnosed by Mark Walters [1] and as demonstrated by the broken
T260-thread-order test, this can cause notmuch to fail to link
messages even though they're in the same thread. In principle the old
approach could have been fixed by updating the user metadata thread
IDs as well, but these are not indexed and hence this would have
required a full scan of all stored thread IDs. Ghost messages solve
this problem naturally by reusing the exact same thread ID and message
ID representation and indexing as regular messages.
Furthermore, thanks to this greater symmetry, ghost messages are also
algorithmically simpler. We continue to support the old user metadata
format, so this patch can't delete any code, but when we do remove
support for the old format, several functions can simply be deleted.
