Subject: [PATCH] lib/open: restore default database path of $HOME/mail

Although this default worked for "notmuch config get", it didn't work
most other places. Restore the previous functionality, with the
wrinkle that XDG locations will shadow $HOME/mail if they exist.

This fixes a bug reported by Jack Kamm in id:87eeefdc8b.fsf@gmail.com
