A new Misfin library project

I mostly did a lot of refactoring today and added a lot of doc comments to make the eventual API more obvious. I also added optional serde support for some of the types so that the data can be serialized for storage or for client usage.
It occurs to me that if there were a Misfin server that served non-local clients it would need a way for people to get their mail off and also to send remotely. Something equivalent to imap for reading your mail remotely, but hopefully much simpler. Could be as simple as serving it up over Gemini and authenticating via client certificates, sort of a "GemMail" service. That doesn't quite handle sending, however. Probably should be brought up in s/misfin separately.
