repo-add: create relative DB symlinks

As noted in FS#20498, if an absolute path is used for specifying the
database when invoking repo-add, the symlink generated will point to the
absolute path instead of being relative to the directory. Fix this for
the two linking cases, but leave the copy untouched so that will still
work.
