Before, the information needed to display different parts of the UI was
tightly coupled to the specific messages being sent back and forth to
the backend worker. Separating out a models package allows us to be more
specific about exactly what a backend is able to and required to
provide for the UI.
Assuming we always have a sorted dirlist
(other code depends on that already), we don't need to loop over the
dirStore.
Any filtering done should be performed elsewhere
Because editors like vim use backupfiles and rename them to the original
name, the file handle used can point to the wrong file. Reopening the
file should fix this.
Many email providers use the imap sub-domain for imap and the smtp
sub-domain for smtp. FastMail is an example of this[1]. This is a small
quality-of-life improvement which automatically replaces imap.* with
smtp.* when going from the imap screen to the smtp screen in the wizard
[1]: https://www.fastmail.com/help/technical/servernamesandports.html
This implements selecting the most preferred mimetype under the
'View->Alternatives' configuration setting when viewing a message.
Mimetypes in the alternatives array are weighted by their position,
where the lower the index in the array the higher the priority, so this
is taken into account during selection.
If no message part matches a mimetype in the alternatives array, then it
selects the first mimetype in the message.
Adds an archive command that moves the current message into the folder
specified in the account config entry.
Supports three layouts at this point:
- flat: puts all messages next to each other
- year: creates a folder per year
- month: same as above, plus folders per month
This also adds a "-p" argument to "cp" and "mv" that works like
"--parents" on mkdir(1). We use this to auto-create the directories
for the archive layout.
Consists of 3 functions
* Store: Access to MessageStore type
* SelectedAccount: Access to Account widget that the target widget
belongs to
* SelectedMessage: Current message (selected in msglist or the one we
are viewing)

vterm.Write and vterm.SetSize race when the window resizes, which
causing the underlying library to segfault.

* :save takes a path and saves the current message part to that location
* :pipe is the same as pipe on the account page, but uses the current
message part rather than the whole email (ie :pipe gzip -d)
* Refactored account:pipe and extracted common pipe code to
commands.util.QuickTerm
* Added helper command aerc.PushError
This commit introduces a new Aerc.Tick function that should be called to
refresh the internal state. This in turn makes each AccountView process worker
events.
The UI goroutine repeatedly refreshes the internal state before drawing a new
frame. The reason for this is that many worker messages may need to be
processed for a single frame, and drawing the UI is far slower than refreshing
the internal state. This has been confirmed in my testing (calling Aerc.Tick
only once per frame results in a slower display).
Many synchronization code has been removed. We can now write widgets without
having to care so much about races. The remaining sync users are:
- widgets/spinner: the spinner value is updated from inside an internal
goroutine
- lib/ui/invalidatable: Invalidate may be called from any goroutine
- lib/ui/grid: same
- lib/ui/ui: an internal goroutine needs read access to UI.exit
- worker/types/worker: Worker.callbacks is used for both worker and UI
callbacks
The exact goroutine requirements for Drawable have been documented.
MessageStore has a lot of exported fields that can be read from the outside.
Each read must be protected, because a call from Update could happen at any
time.
Many Drawable implementations have their own Invalidate and OnInvalidate
functions, with an unexported onInvalidate field. However OnInvalidate and
Invalidate are usually not called in the same goroutine. This results in a race
on this field, e.g.:

To fix this, introduce a new type, Invalidatable, which protects the field.
Unfortunately the Drawable must be passed to the callback function in
Invalidate, so we still need to re-implement this in each Invalidatable user.
It's accessed by the goroutine which increments it and the goroutine that draws
the widget at the same time. Use atomic instead.
