It seems that the ellipsis overlays were shown due to a bug in Emacs,
but this patch is still a reasonable idea.  Otherwise, every time a
notmuch search buffer is refreshed (by pressing 'g') the overlays from
the previous run will collapse to zero-width overlays in position 1.
They're harmless there, but removing them is what 'evaporate is for.
