Feature request: Allow loading of database in a custom location

[sameyepatch]

Being this an extension to read a Buku database, I understand the reason it uses the default ~/.local/share/buku location. However since the extension doesn't actually need Buku itself to work, it would be practical to allow the user to define a custom location in their filesystem, for example, their syncthing folder.

I know there's soft-linking, and I used to do that, but since a while Bukubrow fails to read soft-linked databases.

Would it be even possible to use différent locations for different contexts ? Say, one browser gets its bookmarks from this location, and another from another location ?

Theoretically yes. The host knows where to look for the Buku database but that path could hypothetically come from the extension configuration.
