Name the database each command uses on stderr (closes #111)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s

scan, report and trees now print one line on stderr before anything
else, naming the database and whether its path is the default or comes
from SFDUPES_DATABASE; scan also says when the file is new. report and
trees print it before opening the database, so a missing-database error
follows it. A relative path gets the working directory put in front of
it, with its symlinks resolved as the kernel reports it, and is not
cleaned: a ".." after a symlink names another file than the cleaned
path does. README "Database" lists when scan writes each file.

Unverified: the line on a terminal has no test of its own.
