Subject: [Patch] Fix Emacs interface bug dealing with invisible text

Hey, folks,

I'm new to notmuch, but like much of what I've tried so far.
Thanks to all the contributors!

The following patch fixes a bug I've noticed in Emacs's
notmuch-show mode. Specifically, if you:

    - have certain kinds of washing turned on (I've noticed
      it with signature hiding), and

    - are looking at the last or only message in a thread

If you then hit Space (`notmuch-show-advance-or-archive') to
move on, Emacs will fail to advance and/or archive the
message, due to being kicked out of area of the invisible
text before it can do what it's gotta do.

The patch should fix the problem at the root, which seems to
be with notmuch-show-move-past-invisible-[forward|backward].

So far, I'm the only tester. However, I have added a
signature to the end of this message for your convenience.
(-:

Share & Enjoy!

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] Move past invisible text properly in Emacs

    move-past-invisible-text-* in notmuch-show were
    interacting oddly with hidden text at the end of
    a thread, such as a washed signature block.

P.S.: I also tried this with (point-invisible-p) instead of
      (invisible-p (point)), but for whatever reason, it
      didn't work. That may be something to look into as
      well.
