This new backend allows gnus to handle arbitrary sets of messages
spanning multiple groups, even when these groups are from different
backends and different servers. All gnus glue is removed from
nnir (leaving only the backend search functions) and gnus
search-related processing is done through nnselect. In appropriate
places 'nnir' has been replaced by 'nnselect' or 'search'.

searching and thread-referral sections.

Thanks to Bob Newell for finding this.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-registry.el (gnus-registry-handle-action): If a
message entry ends up with no groups in its 'group key, that means the
entry should be deleted.
(gnus-registry-install-shortcuts): Use a closure (with dynamic :documentation)

(gnus-registry-article-marks-to-names): η-reduce.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-registry.el (gnus-registry-db): Do not initialize
this variable to an empty database, that should only be done for new
databases.
(gnus-registry-load): Remove "force" argument, don't check if the
database is already loaded, as we're only going to load it once.
(gnus-registry-initialize): Either load the db directly, or set up a
hook to do it later.
(gnus-registry-install-hooks): Don't load on
gnus-read-newsrc-el-hook.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-registry.el (gnus-registry-clear): Clearing the
registry should also run the unload hooks.

gnus-registry-article-marks-to-chars): Now we can use a more general
test here.
Continued fixes for a81223aeaa
* lisp/gnus/gnus-registry.el (gnus-registry-article-marks-to-names,
gnus-registry-article-marks-to-chars): object-p is obsolete.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-registry.el (gnus-registry-article-marks-to-chars):
(gnus-registry-article-marks-to-names): The registry is an object,
not a hash table.
See bug #36903
* lisp/gnus/gnus-registry.el (gnus-registry-article-marks-to-chars):
(gnus-registry-article-marks-to-names): In some circumstances it's
possible for the user's summary line format spec to include
registry-specific code, while the registry itself isn't actually
loaded. Make sure the database is actually a hashtable before
accessing it.
Non-ascii Gnus groups should be written to files in their encoded
version until we're ready to bump Gnus' version and add an upgrade
routine.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-start.el (gnus-gnus-to-quick-newsrc-format):
* lisp/gnus/gnus-agent.el (gnus-category-read):
(gnus-category-write): Handle non-ascii group names appropriately.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-registry.el (gnus-registry--munge-group-names): New
function to encode/decode group names.
(gnus-registry-fixup-registry):
(gnus-registry-save): Use function.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-registry.el (gnus-registry-load): Check if the
registry is already loaded, and don't load again unless new optional
FORCE argument is non-nil.
(gnus-registry-clear): New function to clear the registry, added as
a Gnus shutdown. Now that loading doesn't unilaterally reset the
registry, we need to make sure it is reloaded when Gnus is.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-registry.el (gnus-registry-clean-empty)
(gnus-registry-use-long-group-names)
(gnus-registry-max-track-groups, gnus-registry-entry-caching)

* lisp/gnus/gnus-registry.el (gnus-registry-fetch-recipients-fast,
gnus-registry-fetch-sender-fast): First, delete
`gnus-registry-fetch-header-fast'. It was being called with reversed
arguments, and thus always returned nil, but even if the argument
order was correct it would have raised an error, as it was trying to
`assq' a string in a vector. Instead, just have these two functions
do their own work, as they're doing fairly different things.
Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs.
This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party,
planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org
instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving
away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and
fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against
man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and
MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down).
HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone
for now.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-registry.el (gnus-registry-article-marks-to-chars):
Instead, use a plain concat, which will create a string out of a list
of characters.
This patch should not change behavior. It typically omits backslashes
where they are redundant (e.g., in the string literal "^\$").
In a few places, insert backslashes where they make regular
expressions clearer: e.g., replace "^\*" (equivalent to "^*") with
"^\\*", which has the same effect as a regular expression.
Also, use ‘\ %’ instead of ‘\%’ when avoiding confusion with SCCS IDs,
and similarly use ‘\ $’ instead of ‘\$’ when avoiding confusion with
RCS IDs, as that makes it clearer that the backslash is intended.
Mostly these fixes prevent the transliteration of apostrophes
that should stay apostrophes. Also, prefer curved quotes in
Bahá’í proper names, as that’s the preferred Bahá’í style and
these names are chock-full of non-ASCII characters anyway.
