I guess some kind of key value scheme like

  notmuch://?profile=foo
  notmuch::?profile=foo
  
or

  notmuch://?config=.bar?database=fub/zub

would work, basically a thin wrapper around
notmuch_database_open_with_config.

There is still room for bikeshedding about the syntax.  We could throw
in "localhost" for future-proofing,

notmuch://localhost

would pass NULL to all 3 relevant parameters of n_d_o_w_c
