fix: decode RFC2047 subjects, OR TO/FROM in to-mode query, tz-aware Date, drop LIST completion line (v0.1.7)

Subject headers were matched/scanned raw (never RFC2047-decoded), so any
provider that base64/quoted-printable encodes non-ASCII subjects silently
failed subject filtering and code extraction. match_field='to' only
server-queried TO, so an older TO-matching message permanently hid a
forwarded-From match the client-side check was documented to accept.
_age_seconds treated a naive datetime (from a "-0000" Date header) as local
time instead of UTC, corrupting max_age freshness on non-UTC hosts. get_folders
appended aioimaplib's tagged LIST completion text as a phantom folder name on
every call against any RFC-compliant server.

Also corrects __init__.py's __version__, which was left at 0.1.5 through the
0.1.6 release.
