With the patches above this crashes in a predictable / preventable way,
because notmuch_message_get_tags returns NULL. It isn't clear to me yet
what the best API choice is here: minimize difference with the old API
by returning NULL to indicate errors, or switch completely to the
pattern of e.g. notmuch_query_search_messages_st. I suppose we could do
something along the same lines and add new _st versions of the
problematic functions
