Well, I added most of the code required to do it, but then got a bit
stuck at trying to save the X-UIDL into cache file. Normally we don't
wait locks for cache file, if we didn't get it immediately we just don't
update it. X-UIDL would be pretty much required to be stored in it to
get reasonable performance, so we'd have to wait for the lock. But
that's yet another thing to consider when making sure that deadlocks
don't happen. I think I'll implement it at the same time I fix the
already existing mbox deadlock bug.

This change also makes it possible to replace pop3-uidl-uwimap.patch
with a plugin. But overriding methods in struct mail is pretty difficult
now, I'd have to figure out some easier way..
