[PATCH v4 2/3] emacs: use a single history for all searches

[Dmitry Kurochkin]

There are two ways to do search in Emacs UI: search widget in
notmuch-hello buffer and `notmuch-search' function bound to "s".
Before the change, these search mechanisms used different history
lists.  The patch makes notmuch-hello search use the same history list
as `notmuch-search' function.
