5318af606e docs: expand documentation of the gmail labels syncing
- Suggest that this works well together with email indexing.

- Warn about modifying the labelsheader after a sync.

- In the example replace X-Gmail-Keywords by X-Keywords. I think this is
  misleading, since no email client will pick up X-Gmail-Keywords, while
  X-Keywords (the default) is recognized by some.

- add paragraph explaining special gmail labels.

e7fabf9e57 Properly re-raise exception to save original tracebacks
We usually mutate some exceptions to OfflineImapError() and it is
a whole lot better if such exception will show up with the original
traceback, so all valid occurrences of such mutations were transformed
to the 3-tuple form of "raise".  Had also added coding guidelines
document where this re-raise strategy is documented.

0e4afa9132 Make GmailFolder sync GMail labels
When synclabels config flag is set to "yes" for the GMail repo,
offlineimap fetches the message labels along with the messages, and
embeds them into the body under the header X-Keywords (or whatever
'labelsheader' was set to), as a comma separated list.

It also adds an extra pass to savemessageto, that performs label
synchronization on existing messages from GMail to local, the same way
it is done with flags.

We also introduce GmailMaildir repository that adds functionality to
change message labels.  It keeps track of messages modification time,
so one can quickly detect when the labels may have changed.

83e8fca2e0 Make SIGHUP singal handler equivalent to SIGTERM and SIGINT.
offlineimap has several frontends that encourage running it from a
terminal under an X session. When X session closes for a system
shutdown, the terminals exit, after sending SIGHUP to their children.

Previously SIGHUP was treated to be equivalent to SIGUSR1, i.e. wake
up and sync all accounts. This causes delays during shutdown.

According to Wikipedia [0], SIGHUP has been repurposed from a
historical meaning to one of:
 * re-read configuration files, or reinitialize (e.g. Apache, sendmail)
 * controlling pseudo or virtual terminal has been closed

I believe second meaning is more appropriate for offlineimap, and
hence this patch makes SIGHUP to be handled in the same way SIGTERM
and SIGINT are handled.

0752c123f5 Implement the "createfolders" setting for repositories
By default OfflineImap propagates new folders in both
directions. Sometimes this is not what you want. E.g. you might want
new folders on your IMAP server to propagate to your local MailDir,
but not the other way around. The 'readonly' setting on a repository
will not help here, as it prevents any change from occuring on that
repository. This is what the `createfolders` setting is for. By
default it is `True`, meaning that new folders can be created on this
repository. To prevent folders from ever being created on a
repository, set this to `False`. If you set this to False on the
REMOTE repository, you will not have to create the `Reverse
nametrans`_ rules on the LOCAL repository.

Also implement a test for this
