This certainly looks interesting, and not easy to get by scripting
around the existing commands. It is kinda special, so having it in
sexp only seems okay.

I am getting a few surprising matches, e.g.
```
notmuch search  --query=sexp '(thread (count 115)))'
thread:0000000000021229   2021-05-17 [5/5] Michael J Gruber ... redacted
notmuch count --exclude=false thread:0000000000021229
5
```
It could be some database issues, of course. Or me misunderstanding something :)

Patch 1/2 is crlf garbled, by the way. Applies cleanly after removing
the extra ^Ms.
