[GNC] GC 2.6.19 & GC 3.8

[David Cousens]

You will need to maintain separate data files(e.g. give them separate names
identifying the version they run with) for each version as there were some
data file changes going from 2.6.x to 3.x which prevent a 3.x file working
with a 2.6.x version. I think Geert mentioned them in a post in the last
week or so. 

Both versions will also store their configuration files in different
locations in your home directory see
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations. This is possibly a
bonus but changes to things like saved reports in one won't of course carry
through to the other.

You should be able to run instances of both at the same time if you want to.
Just label the launchers in your menu system clearly with the version number
as well.
