[PATCH 2/7] emacs: hello: allow saved search display functions

Extend the saved search plist to include a :display-function property
that can customise the display of the saved search. It can change the
count string displayed and the name string. Thus the user can
customise so that a particular search:

does not show a count (and is thus hello is faster), shows a thread
count, show a combined message/thread count, changes colour of the
search button based on new messages arriving etc.

The display function should use (&rest args) to take a keyword list of
arguments. The advantage of this is that it is easy to add extra
arguments in a backwards compatible way (existing user scripts will
still work).

If a user uses this it will not take advantage of the batch counting
currently done so will make things slower over remote links (except in
cases where no query is done!).

It also deletes the :count-query option from the customise for saved
searches as this method is much more general. The code still supports
the :count-query option though (just the defcustom does not).
