[PATCH v2 4/5] emacs: Use the new JSON reply format.

[Adam Wolfe Gordon <awg+notmuch@xvx.ca>]

Using the new JSON reply format allows emacs to quote HTML
parts nicely by using mm-display-part to turn them into displayable
text, then quoting them. This is very useful for users who
regularly receive HTML-only email.

The behavior for messages that contain plain text parts should be
unchanged.
---

Here is an updated patch that addresses David's concerns. A separate
patch implementing use of the message-citation-line-format variable
will follow.
