python CFFI bindings integration into notmuch build/test

[David Bremner <david@tethera.net>]

This series is on top of a slightly modified version [1] of

     id:20191008210312.20685-2-flub@devork.be

If you want to try out the new bindings, you can try the branch wip/cffi in the repo
https://git.notmuchmail.org/git/notmuch

One current annoyance is that the version of pytest on travis is too
old for what is specified in tox.ini.
