Here is a patch (against current master - 7f726c6e) to allow user
saved-search query pagination. This is an opt-in option to be defined
on per saved-search basis.
To opt-in, define a :limit option on a saved-search.
If not defined, the current behavior (no limit) is kept.
# example
```
(custom-set-variables'(notmuch-saved-searches
'((:name "inbox"
:query "tag:inbox"
:count-query "tag:inbox"
:sort-order 'newest-first
:limit 30
:key "i")
(:name "unread"
:query "tag:inbox and tag:unread"
:count-query "tag:inbox and tag:unread"
:sort-order 'newest-first
:key "u"))))
```
Here the 'unread' saved-search will work as usual.
The 'inbox' one will paginate results by page of 30.
The user can then use M-n to move forward or M-p to move backward in
results.
What this patch does not do:
- no new buttons in the search page view.
- no documentation patch about this option on saved-search

- The state part was unclear, j4ni's old diff on that matter unstuck

- notmuchmail.org is down (some part at least, so i cannot download the
archive, convert and reply to the right thread, sorry)
Thanks to bremner and j4ni for their help on irc
(pointers/answers/help).
