[PATCH 2/7] emacs: tag: allow default case in notmuch-tag-formats

[Mark Walters]

Allow an empty string in notmuch-tag-formats which matches all tags
except those matched explicitly matched. This allows the user to tell
notmuch to hide all tags except those specified.

This will be useful once formatting for deleted/added tags is added
later in the series: a user might want to hide all deleted tags for
example.
