[Patch v3 2/4] emacs: Add `notmuch-show-line-faces' and apply it.

[Mark Walters]

Similar to `notmuch-search-line-faces', `notmuch-show-line-faces'
allows the header line in `notmuch-show-mode' buffers to be coloured
according to the tags of the message. This is just a rebased version of
the  emacs/notmuch-show.el of David Edmondson's patch
