[notmuch] [PATCHv2] Preserve folder information when indexing

[Michal Sojka]

Stores the folder (directory name) of the message in the database as a
term with folder prefix.

This patch was originally sent by Andreas Klöckner. The differences
from the original patch are:
- Folder name is taken from strings generated during travesal. It no
  longer uses glib nor it allocates additional memory to determine the
  base name. The same approach as in
  id:87fx8bygi7.fsf at linux.vnet.ibm.com was used.
- Removed unrelated change which was submitted separately as
  id:1264691584-8290-2-git-send-email-sojkam1 at fel.cvut.cz
- Changed the comment describing database schema.

TODO (see the previous Carl's email):
- Support hierarchical folders
