Users who relied on notmuch-show-all-multipart/alternative-parts
might need to know that it is now buffer-local.

Hi! I'm trying to figure out the status of this patch series, which
seems to have fallen through the cracks. It looks like Jani's solution
exists and works, though it isn't perfect. I would like to get Jani's
solution applied until someone who is sufficiently motivated decides to
work on fancy cycle-multipart-message things. It seems like the last
hurdle is that Mark would like Jani to put the buffer-localization of
notmuch-show-all-multipart/alternative-parts in NEWS. Here's that.

However, it also seems like there was a disagreement about design
direction -- should multiple alternative parts be toggled so you can
see them all at once, or cycled so you can see one at a time? See
id:"87d32yadl5.fsf at qmul.ac.uk". I'm for the code that works now which
is Jani's patch.

+  Displaying multipart/alternative parts has been made a toggle, the
+  same way as indentation and message decryption.
+  notmuch-show-all-multipart/alternative-parts is now buffer-local, so
