Currently, TP_ACCOUNT_MANAGER_FEATURE_CORE becoming ready means that
TP_ACCOUNT_FEATURE_CORE is prepared on all the accounts that existed at the
time that TP_ACCOUNT_MANAGER_FEATURE_CORE was prepared, but no later accounts
have this guarantee.

This strikes me as inauspicious. It makes the API harder to use. Happily this
isn't currently a problem for me.

The attached branch documents the current behaviour, but doesn't fix this bug.
It does also add tp_account_get_path_suffix().
