threading: add force-client-threads option
This patch adds a config option to force the use of client side threads. This option will override a servers Thread capability, and only build threads on the client. It can be enabled contextually. For example: [ui] threading-enabled = true [ui:folder~^Archive] force-client-threads = true This config would enable threads for all views, and use client threads for folders that start with Archive. This can be advantageous if, for example, the folder is very large and the server has a slow response due to building threads for the entire mailbox Signed-off-by: Tim Culverhouse <tim@timculverhouse.com> Acked-by: Robin Jarry <robin@jarry.cc>
