A lovely feature, thanks!

I've pushed this out now (along with a tiny follow-up to avoid a warning
From the emacs compiler).

It does occur to me that once we have saved searches supported at a
lower level within notmuch, then this functionality won't be needed in
the emacs interface at all, (since the nice name and the search strings
will then be equivalent).

And this patch even makes a proposal for what the saved-search syntax
could be. It uses "[ inbox ]" for a saved search named "inbox". I
believe that sup is already using "{inbox}" for a similar
feature. Perhaps a bracketed style like that is what we want.
