[Evolution-hackers] [RFC] fix seg fault of evolution-data-server when adding default vcard

["Zhai, Edwin" <edwin zhai intel com>]

This is one simple patch to fix seg fault of evolution-data-server,
when new contact is added for new created DB.

The root cause is simple: do_create (bf, XIMIAN_VCARD,....) would access
bf->priv->file_db and cause seg fault if not initialized.

I have created one bz https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=648736, 
also attached patch for comments.


=====================================
Adding default vcard for new created DB always failed with seg fault, as
file_db was not initialized before access. This patch fix it.
