beancount.el: Add option `beancount-accounts-files'

[Yiufung Cheong]

I usually dedicate an "accounts.bean" to declare all my accounts, and do my daily financing in another file. Currently `beancount-insert-account`(C-c ') only read candidates from current buffer, so it's inconvenient. This patch adds an option to allow user to specify a bunch of files to read completion candidates.

Newly added `files' argument is optional, so won't affect current users. Similar things could be done for links / tags by adding related options, but I left it to your judgment whether it's necessary.

Hi Yiufung,
Sorry for delays, I'm on vacation now, finally getting to chug through
my personal email after a busy quarter.
Just had a quick look; beancount.el has been updated since you sent this.
Could you send me a pull request and make sure the tests pass?
Happy to have a look.
Thanks,

Hi Yiufung,

I see that you have not submitted a pull request for this patch. 

I am also a beancount user and have the same requirements as you. 

In addition, I have fixed two bugs in this patch. 

I wonder if you agree, I will submit this pull request on your behalf?
