I added a snippet for the test suite to adjust for gmime@3.2.3+
https://github.com/astroidmail/astroid/pull/685

This just echos "ninja test" but doesn't actually run anything. I
changed it to run (invoke "ctest" ".") Then I added a phase to start the
xorg display for the tests and another phase to work around not getting
the test suite to recognize the plugin modules.

The native-inputs should have a bunch moved to regular inputs. It was
also missing gnupg and w3m, needed for the test suite. I removed
adwaita-icon-theme from propagated inputs, we try not to propagate icon
sets. I also sorted them alphabetically.

There's also a bit of borrowed code from geary and gmime, under the
lgpl2.1+, so I added that to the license list. It is true that the
entire work is under the gpl3+ but we try to be more specific if
possible.

I didn't get a chance to test it since I don't use notmuch.

Patch pushed!
