This fixes a substantial performance issue when scrolling emails with
long/complicated contents, where scrolling down a single line can take
something like hundreds of ms before the screen is updated to reflect
the scroll. It's really bad if the email has lots of columns, e.g. like
if it's an html email that was passed through a filter (w3m, etc) to
render it.
Using pprof, I found that the multiple calls to vterm.ScreenCell.Attrs()
in styleFromCell were really really expensive. This patch replaces them
with a single call.
Here's a before and after with a simple, but very manual test of opening
a large email with contents that went through a w3m filter and
continuously scrolling up and down over and over for ~30 seconds:

Also update to the tcell v2 PaletteColor api, which should keep the chosen
theme of the user intact.
Note, that if $TRUECOLOR is defined and a truecolor given, aerc will now stop
clipping the value to one of the theme colors.
Generally this is desired behaviour though.
Prior to this commit, the composer was based on a map[string]string.
While this approach was very versatile, it lead to a constant encoding / decoding
of addresses and other headers.
This commit switches to a different model, where the composer is based on a header.
Commands which want to interact with it can simply set some defaults they would
like to have. Users can overwrite them however they like.
In order to get access to the functions generating / getting the msgid go-message
was upgraded.
Allow styles to be layered over a base style. The list of styles to
apply is layered over the base style in order, such that if the layer
does not differ from the base it is not used. The order that these
styles are applied in is, from first to last:
msglist_default
msglist_unread
msglist_read (exclusive with unread, so technically the same level)
msglist_flagged
msglist_deleted
msglist_marked
So, msglist_marked style dominates.
This fixes an issue where the msglist_deleted style was not being applied.
There is a window where a new dir entry isn't yet in the dirlist.dir.
dirlist.ensureScroll however expected to always find a valid index.
Add a check so that we don't try to scroll to a -1 index.
This allows us to hook into the std libs implementation of parsing related stuff.
For this, we need to get rid of the distinction between a mailbox and a host
to just a single "address" field.
However this is already the common case. All but one users immediately
concatenated the mbox/domain to a single address.
So this in effects makes it simpler for most cases and we simply do the
transformation in the special case.
The `:rmdir` command removes the current directory (`-f` is required if
the directory is not empty).
This is not supported on the notmuch backend.
An issue with the maildir backend is that some sync programs (e.g.
offlineimap) may recover the directory after it is deleted. They need
to specifically be configured to accept deletions, or special commands
need to be executed (e.g. `offlineimap --delete-folder`) to properly
delete folders.
A danger of using this on the IMAP backend is that it is possible for a
new message to be added to the directory and for aerc to not show it
immediately (due to a slow connection) - using `:rmdir` at this moment
(with `-f` if the directory already contains messages) would delete the
directory and the new message that just arrived (and all other
contents). This is documented in aerc(1) so that users are aware of
possible risks.
This can happen for example if aerc is compiled without notmuch support but the
notmuch worker is requested.
Pushing a status message isn't good enough, as this gets overridden pretty
quickly if one has multiple accounts configured.
So we show a fullscreen error instead.
Introduce the ability to configure stylesets, allowing customization of
aerc's look (color scheme, font weight, etc). Default styleset is
installed to /path/to/aerc/stylesets/default.

some people send around huge html without any newline in between.
This did overflow the default 64KB buffer of bufio.Scanner.
If something can't fit in a GB there's no hope left
Also, ignoring errors is bad mkey
Aerc usually used the path []int{1} if it didn't know what the proper path is.
However this only works for multipart messages and breaks if it isn't one.
This patch removes all the hard coding and extracts the necessary helpers to lib.
Added a 'folders-exclude' option that allows removing selected folders
from the directory list sidebar. My motivating example was that removing
a single folder from the list using Golang regexes seemed pretty hard,
so this is a better way to do it. The excluded folders list is included
in the man page.
This changes the scrolling to be done on the draw, when the height is
updated, ensuring that the selected item is kept on screen during
resizing.
Also, this ensures that messages will fill the screen when resizing the
window, for instance, shrinking and then growing drags down more
messages if possible.
This is a transplant of the dirlist scrolling logic.
The grid used static sizes which meant that changing settings didn't
have an effect on elements of the ui, notably the sidebar width. This
patch makes the `Size` parameter of a cell a function which returns the
`int`, allowing for dynamic sizes.
A `Const` function is also included for ease of use for static sizes.
The following functionalities are added to configure aerc ui styles.
- Read stylesets from file with very basic fnmatch wildcard matching
- Add default styleset
- Support different stylesets as part of UiConfig allowing contextual
styles.
- Move widgets/ui elements to use the stylesets.
- Add configuration manual for the styleset
Especially if one tries to interact with all marked messages there could be
the case that not all headers are fetched yet, hence the messageInfo is still nil.
This segfaults a lot of commands which in principle only need the uid to complete.
If we switch to uids, this issue can be alleviated for those commands.
