*** mu
- There's a new subcommand ~mu init~ to initialize the mu database, which
takes the ~--maildir~ and ~--my-address~ parameters that ~index~ used to take.
These parameters are persistent so ~index~ does not need them anymore.
~init~ only needs to be run once or when changing these parameters.
- There is another new subcommand ~mu info~ to get information about the mu
database.
- The contacts cache (as uses in ~mu cfind~ and mu4e contact-completion) is
now stored as part of the Xapian database rather than as a separate file.

- The ~--xbatchsize~ and ~--autoupgrade~ options for indexing are gone now; both
are determined implicitly now.
- The ~--maildir~ parameter is only used when initializing the database, and
it is stored in that database. Afterwards that its value is used; which
means you cannot change the parameter without rebuilding and this is by
design.
- The ~--my-address~ parameter is persistent as well, but can be overwritten;
note that an updated value only applies to the messages indexed /after/ the
change.
- There is a new sub-command ~mfind~, which works just like ~find~, but uses
some mu4e-defaults ~--skip-dups~ and ~--include-related~.

docstring for details.
- ~mu4e~ no longer uses the ~mu4e-maildir~ and ~mu4e-user-mail-address-list~
variables, instead getting the information from ~mu~ (see above).
- Christophe Troestler contributed support for Gnus' calender-invitation
handling in mu4e (i.e., you should be able to accept/reject invitations
etc.). It's very fresh code, and likely it'll be tweaked in the future.
