[PATCH] remove message archiving from show-advance-and-archive

[Jameson Rollins <jrollins@finestructure.net>]

The function to advance through threads with the space bar is useful.
However, the current implementation also archives messages.  The idea
of archiving a message should not be intertwined with the processes of
advancing through messages to read them.  Archiving in general should
be a separate operation that one does explicitly.  This patch just
renames the advance function "notmuch-show-advance", and removes the
archiving of a thread when the end of the thread is reached.
