Thanks to some combination of ignorance and obstinance, mu4e has thrown
compatibility to the wind and completely ignored the exitance of
define-obsolete-function-alias. Coupled with the inconsistent/partial
function renaming, this has made the mu4e 1.6⟶1.8 change particularly
annoying to deal with.
By suffering the pain of doing the mu4e author's work for them, we can
use defalias to give backwards compatibility a good shot for about 60
functions. Some mu4e~x functions are now mu4e--x, others are unchanged,
and then you've got a few odd changes like mu4e~proc -> mu4e--server and
mu4e-search-rerun. The form of message :from entries has also changed,
and a new (mu4e) entrypoint added supplanting mu4e~start.

On mac process args aren't defined, but comm is. Since comm also works
on Linux, we now check for that instead, accounting for a potential
capitalisation difference.
On some OS implementations (e.g. BSD uses kqueue),
`file-notify-add-watch' might not create the file if it doesn't exist.
This patch fixes that error. Arguably, emacs lisp should ensure the same
behaviour exists across each implementation.
