[PATCH] test: add tests for python bindings

[David Bremner]

From: David Bremner <bremner at debian.org>

We start modestly, with a (slightly modified) test case from Kazuo
Teramoto. Originally it just made sure the bindings didn't crash; here
we check that by comparing the output with that of notmuch search.
