We largely use the corpus under test/corpus for
testing. Unfortunately, many of our tests have grown to depend on
having exactly this set of messages, making it hard to add new message
files for testing specific cases.

Move the basic corpus under tests/corpora/default, and make it
possible to add new, independent corpora along its side. This means
tons of renames with a few tweaks to add_email_corpus function in
test-lib.sh to let tests specify which corpus to use.

It seems unobjectionable, but tbh I don't understand the problem it is
solving. Do you plan to ship static test corpuses for individual test
files, rather than using add_message?

Even for the *one* message in the referenced patch, I don't know where I
would put it as a message file. I worked around the issue by using a
here document (which you objected to), but it's a general problem. If
there's an issue someone sees, we can't just shove the message (or a set
of messages) that reproduces the issue under corpus, because it would
screw up all the other tests. There needs to be some other place. This
seemed like a generic approach to the problem.

I could also imagine a shell helper function to add a single message
from somewhere under corpora to the db for testing. For some cases, it
might be more readable than using add_message. (And for my case, it's
impossible to use add_message because I need a broken message.)

BR,
Jani.

OK, I didn't understand the combination of these two problems. In that
case, the change makes sense to me.
