True 1-way sync (backup)

This commit enables true 1-way syncing between repositories. This has
often been demanded for backup purposes when you do not want to cause
accidental modifications of your backup that would be propagated to the
other side.

This has been implemented by allowing to configure a Repository as
'readonly' to forbid any modification on it.

'readonly' applies to all the type of repositories.

New Features
------------
* Enable 1-way synchronization by settting a [Repository ...] to
readonly = True. When e.g. using offlineimap for backup purposes you
can thus make sure that no changes in your backup trickle back into
the main IMAP server.
