Implement an option which, when enabled, causes any tag changes done
from within notmuch-emacs to instantly update matching threads in open
search buffers.

* notmuch.el: Add notmuch-search-update-results.

* notmuch-tag.el: Add notmuch-update-search-tags; invoke
  notmuch-search-update-results from notmuch-tag when
  notmuch-update-search-tags is non-nil.

* T310-emacs.sh: Add test.

 This update now includes a test as well.

 Speaking of which, I had a fun time trying to figure out why my test
 didn't work before I discovered that notmuch-tag-deleted-formats is
 reset in test-lib.el. That took quite a bit of debugging; I think it
 would be good to fix this inconsistency to avoid other contributors
 wasting time on this in the future.
