Added `mail-searchcontacts` script, which uses notmuch to search for all contacts of the mail database. Can be invoked without any arguments to list *all* contacts of the dataase in descending order of message count. Otherwise, it will filter known contacts, first by prioritizing the 'from:' field, and otherwise by searching through the whole database for the keywords passed in. It will also re-format the results so that the list consists of tab-delineated 'mail name' rows. If there is no name, the row will only contain the bare e-mail address. This format is best accepted by aerc, for which the script is written. aerc uses the contacts script for its address completion in editing e-mail headers. Renamed `checkmail` to `mail-check` to fit the naming scheme of `mail-[action]` for mail scripts, to better be able to group them in the shell.
