[PATCH] build: Require gmime 2.6.5

[Thomas Jost]

gmime-2.6 had a bug [1] which made it impossible to tell why a signature
verification failed when the signer key was unavailable (empty "sigstatus" field
in the JSON output). Since 00b5623d the corresponding test is marked as broken
when using gmime-2.6 (2.4 is fine).

This bug has been fixed in gmime 2.6.5, which is now the minimal gmime-2.6
version required for building notmuch (gmime-2.4 is still available). As a
consequence the version check in test/crypto can be removed.

Hi Tomi, hi again list,

I agree it's a better solution.

Here is another patch that makes gmime >= 2.6.5 a requirement.
Building against gmime-2.4 is of course still possible.

Apparently gmime 2.6.5 is not available yet in Debian, nor in Fedora,
so I think we should wait a little bit before pushing this.

Best regards,
Thomas
