Download GitHub database: fix gh invocation on Windows

When running `gh api /repos/...` in the Git Bash on Windows, it leads to
a 404. The reason is the automatic path conversion from "Unix-y" paths
on the command-line to proper Windows paths, as described in detail
https://www.msys2.org/docs/filesystem-paths/. Git Bash simply has no
chance to understnad that `/repos/...` is not referring to an absolute
path on the local filesystem.

Let's just skip the leading slash. This is as valid an invocation, and
sidesteps that path conversion on Windows.

 You can check if a repository has any CodeQL databases available for download using the ``/repos/<owner>/<repo>/code-scanning/codeql/databases`` endpoint.
 For example, to check for CodeQL databases using the `GitHub CLI <https://cli.github.com/manual/gh_api>`__ you would run::
 
-   gh api /repos/<owner>/<repo>/code-scanning/codeql/databases
+   gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/code-scanning/codeql/databases
 
 This command returns information about any CodeQL databases that are available for a repository, including the language the database represents, and when the database was last updated. If no CodeQL databases are available, the response is empty.
 
 When you have confirmed that a CodeQL database exists for the language you are interested in, you can download it using the following command::
 
-   gh api /repos/<owner>/<repo>/code-scanning/codeql/databases/<language> -H 'Accept: application/zip' > path/to/local/database.zip
+   gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/code-scanning/codeql/databases/<language> -H 'Accept: application/zip' > path/to/local/database.zip
 
 For more information, see the documentation for the `Get CodeQL database <https://docs.github.com/en/rest/code-scanning#get-a-codeql-database-for-a-repository>`__ endpoint in the GitHub REST API documentation.
