We use notmuch search in two places in notmuch-git.py: to find which
tags have a given prefix, and to see if message with given id exists
locally. In both cases we do not want the presence of exclude tags
(e.g. deleted) to change the results.

The effects of this bug are a bit subtle; out of 12324 messages tagged
'deleted', without this fix I was missing 25 messages. That probably
explains why I couldn't come up with a test to demonstrate the
issue. On other hand, I think it is pretty clearly the right thing to
do, even if most people don't notice a change.
