mk: detect if notmuch headers & libs are available
Detect if notmuch is available by trying to compile a minimal go program that uses the notmuch.h header and links to libnotmuch.so. If that succeeds, set the default GOFLAGS value to -tags=notmuch. Signed-off-by: Robin Jarry <robin@jarry.cc> Tested-by: Inwit <inwit@sindominio.net>
