[PATCH] emacs: add function to toggle display of all multipart/alternative parts

[Jani Nikula]

Add function notmuch-show-toggle-multipart-alternative to make
notmuch-show-all-multipart/alternative-parts buffer local, toggle its
value in the buffer, and redisplay the thread with either all or
preferred alternative parts expanded.

A small wrinkle is that in order to make the variable survive
notmuch-show-refresh-view (which is required for expanding/collapsing
the parts, but ends up calling kill-all-local-variables through
notmuch-show-mode) it is necessary to give it the permanent-local
property.
