bug fix release 0.22.1

Hi Team;

A long time ago, David E. fixed a couple of annoying bugs with the emacs
interface, and I added two commits to the release branch with the intent
of making a bugfix point release. Then I got distracted, and never made
that release.  Are there any other small, but important fixes in master
that I should cherrypick? A few candidates are listed below.

David Bremner:
      lib: fix definition of LIBNOTMUCH_CHECK_VERSION
      - this is a pretty embarrassing bug
      
      doc: forbid further operations on a closed database
      - this is not so important, but would let me close a debian
      bug ;)
      
      test: don't use dump and restore in a pipeline
      - these seems like a test failing in the waiting.
      
Mark Walters:
      emacs: show: improve handling of mark read tagging errors
      - not sure if this really fits the small bugfix category.
            
Stefano Zacchiroli:
      notmuch-mutt: use env to locate perl for increased portability
      - I don't use notmuch mutt, but it's a small fix
      
Tomi Ollila:
      test: set LD_LIBRARY_PATH early and keep its old contents
      - this seems like it could be annoying

      test: test_python: set PYTHONPATH to the python execution environment
      - I'm less sure about this one

early doc fixes ftw!

potential mystical failures due to timing... #t

I'd say nil -- I have something to check on this ... (*)

nil

(*) My "plan" is to:

- craft file to be added to fs and to database
- get the message to search results
- remove the file
- try to "open" the message into notmuch-show buffer

IIRC there was some peculiarity on behaviour -- but the same
peculiarity might have happened before the change was applied...

I think this can wait -- the error is "local" to the particular show
buffer (in particular reloading the buffer will fix it).

Best wishes

I just pushed a release candidate with

9e6017b notmuch-mutt: use env to locate perl for increased portability
ff9284d lib: fix definition of LIBNOTMUCH_CHECK_VERSION
f2886b8 doc: forbid further operations on a closed database
48d3353 test: don't use dump and restore in a pipeline
64b0d21 emacs: Tell `message-mode' that outgoing messages are email.
fdce7eb emacs: Observe the charset of MIME parts when reading them.

I'll try to work up some NEWS over the next few days and then make a
release.  Per usual I also uploaded the release candidate to debian
experimental.
