[PATCH v2] contrib/nmbug: new script for sharing tags with prefix notmuch::

From: David Bremner <bremner at debian.org>

In this initial version, we take care of import and export of the
appropriate tags in line oriented format amenable to easy merging.

We also provide (not very robust/clever) commands commit/push/pull
to deal with a git repo that as already been set up.
---

fixed silly debugging output.
add some convenience commands.
