When storing information on disk, it makes sense to include the account path
into the on-disk path.

For example offline roster cache (bug #62378) done from the CM should store its
DB in "~/.cache/telepathy/roster/gabble/jabber/acc0/user at example.com".

Another example is telepathy-logger could also store its logs in similar
location.

TpConnection already knows its TpAccount most of the time (when both objects
exists within the same TpSimpleClientFactory). When only high-level APIs are
used that should be always the case.

TpBaseConnection however doesn't know anything about its Account. This could be
fixed by adding a connection manager parameter that MC will set.

Maybe the account path could then become a property of the Connection iface,
that would allow TpConnection to ensure it always have its TpAccount.
