notmuch new: Defer maildir_flags synchronization until after removals
When a file in the mailstore is renamed, this appears to "notmuch new"
as both an added file and a removed file (for the same message). We
want the synchronization of the maildir_flags to reflect the final
state, (after the rename is complete). Therefore, it's incorrect to
perform the synchronization immediately after adding a new
file. Instead we queue up these synchronizations (by message ID[*])
and perform them after the removals are complete.
With this change, the "dump/restore" case of the maildir-sync tests,
as well as the recent "remove 'S'" case both now pass where they were
failing before.
Interestingly, the "remove info" test was passing before, but now
fails. This is actually due to a separate bug, (and the bug just fixed
was masking it, by preventing the test from performing as desired).
[*] It's important to queue by message ID---queueing actual message
objects does not work since the message objects will retain stale data
such as the old filenames.
