Do not store full path for plugins in PLUGINDIR.

Actually, I think there really is a bug. The configuration stores full path for
loaded plugins, even if they're in the default plugin directory (which is
$PREFIX/claws-mail/plugins, where $PREFIX is usually different for Claws Mail
from a distro package, and when compiled from source). That results in the
program trying to load wrong plugins on startup.

Attached patch should fix this, although Pierre should either unload all the
wrong plugins (in italics) and load the right ones, or edit the mentioned
[Plugins_GTK2] section in clawsrc, leaving only e.g. "fancy.so" on each line,
instead of full paths. With this patch, the configuration will be saved
correctly from that point on, and fancy.so from correct directory will be
loaded every time.
