Expose query_set_sort #15

Currently there is no way to have a stable query result (I'm hypothesizing). The binding already provides query_set_sort, but it isn't exposed in hs-notmuch.

Interesting theory. Checking the libnotmuch source, though, I see that sort is set to NOTMUCH_SORT_NEWEST_FIRST by default (i.e. in notmuch_query_create).

Are you certain that you're getting messages in different order?

No I'm not certain. Will need to confirm.

This has turned out to be a non-issue, although exposing this function would be a nice to have to implement sorting :)
