isearch: support 64-bit article numbers for SQLite query

While IMAP UIDs are specified as 32-bit in RFC 3501, there's no
reason we can't support 64-bit article numbers on our end when
the time comes.  Neither NNTP nor POP3 have the 32-bit
limitation, even, so it's not inconceivable that IMAP will drop
that limitation at some point, too.
