Progress bar shouldn't print anything if it isn't modifying an attachment. #71

Currently, the Attachment Converter progress bar prints a before/after statement for every email, including those with no attachments and those with attachments it doesn't modify:

> attc < input.mbox > output.mbox

Processing email with structure...

Etc. We would like to hush these progress bar messages for emails with no attachments and/or with unmodified attachments, so that the progress bar only displays the before/after skeletons when the after skeletons introduce new converted copies.
