Add additional flagging functionality
More mail flags can now be set, unset, and toggled, not just the read/seen flag. This functionality is implemented with a new `:flag` and `:unflag` command, which are extensions to the matching `:read` and `:unread` commands, adding support for different flags. In fact, the `read`/`unread` commands are now recognized aliases to `flag`/`unflag`. The new commands are also well documented in aerc(1). The change mostly extends the previous read/unread setting functionality by adding a selection for the flag to change.
