AFAIK if the file is hard linked the deletion only removes one link, hence the
file isn't actually deleted until the number of hard links is 1, so even in
that case it's safe to remove it (even when using shred, see claws_unlink in
utils.c).

The problematic case would be shared pictures but _not_ hard linked :)

Anyway I disagree with the idea of returning a constructed path. I'm more
inclined to build the path on the caller side and left the addrbook API
untouched.

If later more callers appear it can be considered if the API should be modified
or not.
