bug#53250: icedove clears data |

A brief follow up:
It seems the ~/.icedove folder is not used by icedove (it was probably a relic
of when I used icedove-wayland).
Now looking into ~./thunderbird instead I see several more profiles.
```
nicholas@guix14 ~/.thunderbird$ ls
bv7r86h9.default/ installs.ini profiles.ini
gdmykixq.default-default-1/ k6sjw3jm.default-default/
nicholas@guix14 ~/.thunderbird$ cat profiles.ini
[Profile2]
Name=default-default-1
IsRelative=1
Path=gdmykixq.default-default-1
[Profile1]
Name=default
IsRelative=1
Path=bv7r86h9.default
Default=1
[Profile0]
Name=default-default
IsRelative=1
Path=k6sjw3jm.default-default
[Install281FC43567D8867D]
Default=gdmykixq.default-default-1
Locked=1
[General]
StartWithLastProfile=1
Version=2
[Install3F4F07DFB18472B1]
Default=k6sjw3jm.default-default
Locked=1
```
Launching icedove with `icedove -p` and then iterating through the 3 listed
profiles all leads to a blank profile, except for default-default. The
default-default profile contains all of my mail account and settings.
I now set default-default to be my main profile (resolving my issue) but I
doubt this is what users expect the software to do.
Is it possible that icedove creates a new profile on upgrades and sets it as
default? I definitely did not manually create 3 profiles.
Kind regards,
Nicholas
