    Prevent AccountSynchronizier from deadlocking under certain conditions
    
    The AccountSynchronizer could deadlock waiting for an EmailPrefetcher
    to finish under certain conditions, particularly if the folder closed
    before the prefetcher was finished.  This lead to a state where the
    AccountSynchronizer would never synchronize against unopened folders.
    If Geary was left open for a long time and the user clicked on All
    Mail, rather than the current state of that folder appearing
    immediately, it could take a moment for Geary to fetch the envelopes
    and headers/bodies.
    
    Fixing this closes bgo#713447, which was also due to other bugs that
    have been fixed over time (in particular, the startup speedup work in
    0.5) and better spinner management (bgo#713703).  It also corrects
    a problem where detection of new mail while opening the folder let
    to prefetching that mail, which was unnecessary because once the
    folder is fully opened all unsynchronized mail is detected and pulled
    down.
