There are concurrent threads that are accessing and modifying
IMAPWorker.seqMap (the mapping of sequence numbers to message UIDs).
This can lead to crashes when trying to add and remove a message ID.

Use a map which makes more sense than a simple array for random access
operations. Also, it allows better typing for the key values. Protect
the map with a mutex. Add internal API to access the map. Add basic unit
tests to ensure that concurrent access works.

Add option to cache headers for imap accounts. Cache db is located at
$XDG_CACHE_DIR/aerc/{account name}. The cache is cleaned of stale
entries when aerc is first opened.
Two new account level configuration options are introduced:
* cache-headers (Default: false)
* cache-max-age (Default: 30 days (720 hours))
The change in worker/imap/open.go is to set the selected directory. This
is required to access the UIDVALIDITY field, which is used in
combination with the message ID to form the key for use in the cache db.
The key structure is: "header.{UIDVALIDITY}.{UID}"
Where reasonable, cache does not stop aerc from running. In general, if
there is an error in the cache, aerc should continue working as usual.
Errors are either displayed to the user or logged.
All messages are stored without flags, and when retrieved have the flags
set to SEEN. This is to prevent UI flashes. A new method to
FetchMessageFlags is introduced to update flags of cached headers. This
is done asynchronously, and the user will see their messages appear and
then any flags updated. The message will initially show as SEEN, but
will update to unread. I considered updating the cache with the
last-known flag state, however it seems prudent to spare the R/W cycle
and assume that - eventually - all messages will end up read, and if it
isn't the update will occur rather quickly.
Note that leveldb puts a lock on the database, preventing multiple
instances of aerc from accessing the cache at the same time.
Much of this work is based on previous efforts by Vladimír Magyar.

Display threads in the message list. For now, only supported by the
notmuch backend and on IMAP when the server supports the THREAD
extension.
Setting threading-enable=true is global and will cause the message list
to be empty with maildir:// accounts.

When deleting a message, sometimes FetchDirectoryContents will fire.
FetchDirectoryContents will return a smaller set of UIDs since messages
have been deleted. This operation races with fetching from the seqMap in
client.ExpungeUpdate. Only recreate the seqMap if it can grow so that
messages will continue to be expunged.

Unfortunately, the IMAP protocol hasn't been designed to be used from multiple
goroutines at the same time. For instance, if you fetch twice the same message
from two different goroutines, it's not possible to tell whether the response
is for one receiver or the other. For this reason, go-imap clients aren't safe
to use from multiple goroutines.
This commit changes the IMAP workers to be synchronous again (a command is
executed only after the previous one has completed). To use IMAP from different
threads, popular clients (e.g. Thunderbird) typically open multiple
connections.
