piem-lei-query-thread: Omit main part of subject if shared
In addition to suppressing identical subjects (after stripping "re:"), public-inbox's web interface will compare the current line's subject with the previous line's, and cut off the shared tail: [PATCH] Add basic integration for Rmail ` <suppressed completely> ` [PATCH v2] " <-- here ` <suppressed completely> I think the above is helpful.

Teach piem-lei-query-thread to split the subject into a "prefix" (some number of "[tag]" items) and a "main" part (everything else), and elide a line's main part if it matches the previous line's. In the above example, the last line would be ` [PATCH 3/3] … Message-Id: <20210605211402.20304-12-kyle@kyleam.com>
