Emacs: Ensure left-to-right display for message headers
In notmuch-show buffer insert invisible U+200E LEFT-TO-RIGHT MARK character at the beginning of message header paragraph if the From header contains a right-to-left character. This ensures that the header paragraph is always rendered in left-to-right mode. See Emacs Lisp reference manual section "(elisp) Bidirectional Display" for more info.
