[PATCH v4 3/4] Utility function to seek in MIME trees in depth-first order.

[Austin Clements]

This function matches how we number parts for the --part argument to
show.  It will allow us to jump directly to the desired part, rather
than traversing the entire tree and carefully tracking whether or not
we're "in the zone".
