detect inconsistent state of highest assigned UID

the highest assigned UID must always be at least as high as the highest
actually found UID, as otherwise we'd hand out duplicate UIDs at some
point. also, getting into such a state in the first place indicates some
potentially serious trouble, or at least external interference (e.g.,
moving/copying a message from another folder without giving it a
pristine filename).
