Database migration did not find place after upgrading from python to rust

[tobixen]

If I understand https://docs.activitywatch.net/en/latest/migrating.html correctly, when starting aw-server-rust, the old database should automatically be migrated. It apparently didn't happen for me. Some observations:

• Python version was configured without "storage" set in the toml-file, default peevee assumed
• The web interface does show that new events come into the database, but it does not show any old events
• The database file $HOME/.local/share/activitywatch/aw-server-rust/sqlite.db is 60MB big, that clearly indicates it still has old data.
• Here are the logs:
