Merge branch 'card-list': the thread pane as a list of cards
Replaces the five-column grid with a single column of three-line cards. Item 53 recorded that the columns, not the cues drawn inside them, were what made the list read as a table of records; item 20 had already shipped finished, tested and green and been rejected on sight for exactly that reason. A card is sender and date, subject with the flag, attachment and reply-count marks, and tags, at one uniform height. Replies indent under a continuous spine and show only the tags their thread does not carry. The account colour runs down the card's left edge, replacing the chip that used to eat a third of every subject line, with matching swatches in the account dropdown. Sorting newest or oldest first is new and remembered. Closes items 20, 51, 53 and 60. The four defects that mattered were all found by rendering cards to an image and looking at them, with the suite green through every one: a date clipped on unread cards because bold is wider than the font the layout measured, an accent bar painted in a colour identical to the background, an expander pill in a palette role a theme had made equal to Base, and three separate faults from trusting notmuch's reply depth to mean structure when it only means how notmuch happened to thread the mail.
