feat(startup): add startup_account, the account the dropdown opens on
Answers "start me in work - Inbox rather than All accounts - Inbox". The key names an account by its [account.<key>] suffix and the dropdown is set to it before the startup query runs; because a built-in filter composes with the dropdown, that is the whole mechanism and the key never reaches a query builder. Validated on load: a name matching no account is reported and cleared, since the dropdown has no entry for it and would sit on All accounts without saying why. Which side applies the scope depends on what the startup entry is, and getting it wrong is silent in both directions. A generated filter comes back from resolvedQuery() already scoped, so letting runQuery() apply the dropdown again gives path:"work/**" and (path:"work/**" and (tag:inbox)). A saved query does not, because resolvedQuery() ignores the account key for one, so claiming it was already scoped leaves it unscoped with the dropdown pointing at Work. The first of those shipped in this session's working tree and passed its test, because the assertion used contains() and the double-scoped string contains the scope too. It asserts the exact query now. The second was found by writing the test for the case rather than by reading, and is covered by aStartupAccountAlsoScopesASavedStartupQuery. The README's startup_query documentation was wrong on two counts after the previous commit: the fallback is the Unread filter rather than the first query in the file, and the name can now match a built-in filter.
