[Feature request] Add command-line argument to start OTPClient with a certain database #340

I regularly switch between databases. Currently, I have to open OTPClient and enter the password to unlock database1. Then I have to click on “Change database”, select it from the file selection dialogue and enter the password to unlock database2. Same when I switch back to database1.

My proposal is to enable giving the database I want to use as a command-line argument, e.g.

otpclient --database="~/database2.enc"

Fantastic idea, I'll for sure implement it!
