Adds <mark-message> binding to create "hotkeys" for messages.

<mark-message>foo<enter> will create a new macro "'foo" which will
return to the current message by searching for that message's
message id.  The initial character of the macro is defined by
$mark_macro_prefix, and defaults to "'" for verisimilitude vs. vi.

Pushed by Kevin McCarthy with a minor fix.

+There are times that it's useful to ask Mutt to "remember" which message
+you're currently looking at, while you move elsewhere in your mailbox.
+You can do this with the <quote>mark-message</quote> operator, which
+is bound to the <quote>~</quote> key by default.  Press this key to
+enter an identifier for the marked message. When you want to return to
+this message, press <quote>'</quote> and the name that you previously
+entered.
+</para>

+<para>
+(Message marking is really just a shortcut for defining a macro
+that returns you to the current message by searching for its
+Message-ID.  You can choose a different prefix by setting the <link
+linkend="mark-macro-prefix">$mark_macro_prefix</link> variable.)
