i agree with Tomi that something like this (smtp-dummy asks for an
available port and reports it), is the ideal solution, in that it means
that two copies of the notmuch testsuite itself could even run
independently and avoid contending for system resources.

but i think Bremner's manually-set port is a completely reasonable first
step, and we can adopt the proposed optimization later.  LGTM.
