Feature: make paths in database.yml (optionally) relative

Would be nice indeed.

If we go that way, we should also improve FileFinder error messages
(e.g. by telling the end user in which directories the missing file was looked for).

[PaulLerner]

Hi,
Not sure what error messages are you talking about...

[hbredin]

I got carried away and thought you also wanted to allow relative paths in the Databases section of PYANNOTE_DATABASE_CONFIG file (handled by FileFinder).

Let's do that in another PR. It would be really useful as well, don't you think?

[PaulLerner]

Yes, although since we usually don't provide for the wavs, I thought it would be difficult to make the wav path relative to PYANNOTE_DATABASE_CONFIG

[hbredin]

We don't provide the wavs but can explain where to move the database.yml file we do provide.

Anyway, this is now a different issue: #43.
