show inline html images as attachments in emacs notmuch-show

Hi Mark,

thanks for info. I correct myself. The CID images in my case do not link
correctly when email opened as text/plain. They do however work when
email is opened as text/html.

In case of text/html they nicely are shown inline. In case of text/plain
the link is somehow live, but cid: is in different color than link
itself. when clicked on both separately, they both open empty emacs
buffer.

I send you privately one of my emails, which exhibits this behaviour as
well the screenshot on how it looks on my screen

thanks
.d.
