mutt: color unread, use mbsync, and use `sendmail`

I recently set up smtpd on my laptop to send email (just a simple relay
to fastmail). It has shown to be much quicker than mutt's baked in smtp
and I like the idea of separating the MUA from the MTA.

Other changes here are mostly cosmetic (besides mbsync over offlineimap,
which is just a simple swap-out as far as mutt is concerned)
