Paul LütznerandClaude Opus 5.5 896f30eb02 Import an account's history without holding up new mail ...

A first sync used to be the import: every IMAP folder from its oldest
message to its newest, every Gmail message listed before one was fetched,
every Microsoft folder enumerated to its end, all in one job on the queue
new mail arrives on. A large account showed an empty Inbox for most of an
hour and every other account's mail waited behind it (#42).

The sync now only arranges for new mail to be seen. History is
MailImporter's, a page at a time on a new `ingest_backlog` queue with a
worker of its own, newest mail first and the Inbox before anything else;
Spam and the bin come last. Accounts take turns, a page that fails costs
itself, and every sync restarts an import that has gone quiet.

- IMAP walks each folder down from the top in pages of fifty.
- Gmail asks for the newest 200 of the Inbox, then pages the listing.
- Microsoft reads each folder's first delta round a page at a time; a
  folder being read is asked only what it received since. Removals that
  cannot be judged while a folder is unread are kept and judged later.
- Sync requests a later sync has already covered are skipped.
- A chip beside the search box shows that an import is running and how
  far it has got. The indicator never updated on mail pages, because its
  controller was not mounted there.

Also from #42: an account can have a separate password for sending,
behind a button under the SMTP fields. One field by default.
