turns out i misread the spec in a subtle way: while all other folders
are physically nested under INBOX, the IMAP view puts them at the same
(root) level. to get them shown as subfolders of INBOX, they need to
have _two_ leading dots.
this also implies that the Maildir++ mode has no use for a Path, so
reject attempts to specify one.
flock() may be implemented via fcntl(), which may cause the process to
deadlock itself when trying to apply both types of locks. this is the
case even on linux when the file lives on NFS.
it's unlikely that anything except mbsync would try to access the
.uidvalidity files anyway, so there is no point in trying to be
compatible with anything else ...

that pattern may very well expand to INBOXNOT, which would naturally
live under Path, so we need to look into the Path. of course, this
actually makes sense only if there *is* a Path, and complaining about
it being absent is backwards.
the legacy style is a poorly executed attempt at Maildir++, so introduce
the latter for the sake of completeness. but most users will probably
just want to use subfolders without any additional dots.
move the unconditional addition of INBOX out ouf the function.
this makes it possible to move the folder check and addition to the
listing before the recursion, which seems clearer.
in the case of imap stores, the failure is bound to the server config,
not just the store config.
that means that the storage of the failure state needs to be private to
the driver, accessible only through a function.
simply make the code symmetrical to the inverse case.
note that the result will be sort of awkward, as the folders under Path
(and thus the subfolders of Inbox) don't start with a dot, while the
subfolders of these folders do. this needs to be addressed separately.
when we run into Inbox while listing Path, check whether Inbox is being
listed anyway, and just skip it if so, instead of listing it right away
and resetting LIST_INBOX (and thus having a calling order dependency).
- the old meaning of -V[V] was moved to -D{n|N}, as these are really
debugging options.
- don't print the info messages by default; this can be re-enabled with
the -V switch, and is implied by most debug options (it was really
kind of stupid that verbose/debug operation disabled these).
- the sync algo/state debugging can be separately enabled with -Ds now.
propagating many messages from a fast store (typically maildir or a
local IMAP server) to a slow asynchronous store could cause gigabytes of
data being buffered. avoid this by throttling fetches if the target
context reports memory usage above a configurable limit.

don't retry dead Stores for every Channel.
this also introduces a state for transient errors (specifically, connect
failures), but this is currently unused.
a directory is no mailbox unless it contains a cur/ subdir.
but if that one is present, create new/ and tmp/ if they are missing.
this makes it possible to resume interrupted maildir creations.
the seznam.cz IMAP server seems very eager to send UIDNEXT responses
despite not supporting UIDPLUS. this doesn't appear to be a particularly
sensible combination, but it's valid nonetheless.
however, that means that we need to save the UIDNEXT value before we
start storing messages, lest imap_find_new_msgs() will simply overlook
them. we do that outside the driver, in an already present field - this
actually makes the main path more consistent with the journal recovery
path.

... for windows fs compatibility.
the maildir-specific InfoDelimiter inherits the global FieldDelimiter
(which affects SyncState), based on the assumption that if the sync
state is on a windows FS, the mailboxes certainly will be as well, while
the inverse is not necessarily true (when running on unix, anyway).

memcmp() is unfortunately not guaranteed to read forward byte-by-byte,
which means that the clever use as a strncmp() without the pointless
strlen()s is not permitted, and can actually misbehave with
SSE-optimized string functions.
so implement proper equals() and starts_with() functions. as a bonus,
the calls are less cryptic.
the highest assigned UID must always be at least as high as the highest
actually found UID, as otherwise we'd hand out duplicate UIDs at some
point. also, getting into such a state in the first place indicates some
potentially serious trouble, or at least external interference (e.g.,
moving/copying a message from another folder without giving it a
pristine filename).

if something managed to make the maildir .uidvalidity files big enough
(possible only by appending garbage or scrambling them alltogether), we
would overflow the read buffer by one when appending the terminating
null.
this is not expected to have any real-world impact.
