v2 _notmuch_message_ensure_metadata exception handling

I tried to address most of Jani's comments on v1 [1]. The bad news is
that the test is a bit delicate, it really does need the whole corpus.
I did decide to follow the suggestion to make the _reopen function
private for now. It would be nice if we could hide that complexity
from library users, I guess we'll have to see.
