[PATCH 2/2] emacs: add support for defining custom sort order for saved searches

Add a new customization option notmuch-saved-searches-oldest-first to
define custom sort order for saved searches. Do this as a separate
option from notmuch-saved-searches to dodge backwards compatibility
issues.

NOTES:

If the name of a tag matches the name of a saved search with a custom
sort order, then the search for that tag using the all tags section of
notmuch-hello will use the custom sort order too.

If you change any sort orders, you must refresh notmuch-hello for the
changes to take effect.

Only searches initiated from notmuch-hello will be affected.
