[PATCH v2 3/4] nmbug-status: Wrap query phrases in parentheses when and-ing together

["W. Trevor King" <wking@tremily.us>]

For example:

  "query": ["tag:a", "tag:b or tag:c"]

is now converted to:

  ( tag:a ) and ( tag:b or tag:c )

instead of the old:

  tag:a and tag:b or tag:c

This helps us avoid confusion due to Xapian's higher-precedence AND
[1], where the old query would be interpreted as:

  ( tag:a and tag:b ) or tag:c

 ------------
 
+`nmbug-status` now wraps query phrases in parentheses when and-ing
+them together, to avoid confusion about clause grouping.
+
 `nmbug-status` now supports `meta.message-url` to override the Gmane
 template.  For example, you can use:
