Documentation update

[azurit at pobox.sk]

Hi guys,

this page needs to be updated:
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation/Maildir#Control_files

(link was from here: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation)

Section 'Control files' is mentioning only 2 files but, in fact,  
Dovecot will store some additional files in CONTROL location:
dovecot-uidvalidity
dovecot-uidvalidity.*
subscriptions
(anything more?)

Even more, page https://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation has missing  
note to CONTROL files location about storing files 'dovecot-uidlist'  
and 'dovecot-keywords' of INBOX inside .INBOX directory instead of  
root directory (as it's stored inside mailbox).

Missing anything from above will cause re-downloading of all e-mails  
by e-mail clients!

And finally, i'm attaching a Python script which will safely copy/move  
CONTROL files from mail_location to new location (btw, moving it on  
SSD storage caused quite high performance boost in our environment).

azur
