thread=refs

[Ken Murchison]

As far as I can tell, the last specification for thread=refs was 
here:https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-morg-inthread-01

To implement this you want to look at index.c in the Cyrus source and 
add another entry to the thread_algs[] array.  I'm guessing that you can 
reuse a lot of the existing index_thread_ref() code (which is probably 
needs to be renamed to index_thread_references()).
