[PATCH 0/6] Add an unthreaded mode

This series adds an unthreaded mode. In this mode all messages
matching the query are shown, one per line, in unthreaded (reverse)
date order. For some discussion of such a mode see
id:87mupcay3s.fsf at tethera.net and subsequent thread.

The main key bindings are u to run an unthreaded search, and U to
rerun the current query in unthreaded view.

Most of the functionality comes from the existing notmuch-tree code so
it is relatively simple.

I have been running some very similar code for just over a year and
finally found time to tidy and submit it.

One note: --entire-thread=false outputs just the matching messages
(not the entire threads) but still in threaded order, and this option
can be used by pre-existing emacs functionality (depending on user
settings); this is why I added a new --unthreaded option.

Best wishes

Mark
