mhl is used for display.  And a user can substitute their own
filter for it.  We need to fold header fields when producing a
message.

I think that output_headers() is the right place.  It's the only
place where header fields are output.

There is a fold() function in sbr/mhical.c, maybe it could be
moved to sbr and called from output_headers() for message and
content part headers.  Those shouldn't need multibyte character
support, though that wouldn't hurt.
