bug: filename points to wrong location

bug: filename points to wrong location

I noticed this when investigating an aerc bug report [1].

When the notmuch config contains a different location for
database.mail_root (e.g. ~/.mail/user) and database.path (unset,
should default to ~/.local/share/notmuch/default), the filepath returned
by "notmuch_message_get_filename" points to the database path instead of
the mail_root path.
Here is a simple reproduction in python [2], that uses the problematic
"notmuch_message_get_filename".
"notmuch show" on the other hand does have the correct filename/path.

According to an IRC comment from Thorben, this issue can be fixed on the
aerc side by changing the call to notmuch_database_open_with_config.
