Improve message for unknown untagged UIDNEXT response.
Per RFC3501 §6.3.1 and §6.3.2 ‘UIDNEXT’ must be returned in an OK
untagged response. See also Appendix B#34.
However §6.3.1 suggests that it's in fact optional: “If this is missing,
the client can not make any assumptions about the next unique identifier
value.”
A correction was proposed in Errata ID 3445 https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid3445 ,
and rejected on the ground that clients SHOULD support the implement
default behavior for missing data.
We heavily rely on the ‘UIDNEXT’ presence and won't implement a
workaround for its absence; instead we panic() with a more informative
message.
