Allow custom Mongo database names #3191
Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please elaborate.
Currently database name seems to be hardcoded in clients.py. It's a bit tedious to change modmail_bot strings in clients.py every time. This issue is especially apparent for those of us who run multiple modmail instances on the same machine, in our case it's different bot instances for different languages we support.
Describe the solution you'd like
Perhaps add support for either database names in CONNECTION_URI in .env (mongodb+srv://mongodburi/database_name) (default to modmail_bot if none provided)
Does your solution involve any of the following?
- Logviewer
- New config option
Describe alternatives you've considered
Alternatively make a new .env param such as DATABASE_NAME
Who will this benefit?
People who run more than one instance of modmail bot on the same database, or people who prefer to have better configurability.

Or it should get the database from the mongo uri provided in .env

That would probably be the best, I agree.

I put this as low priority because we may implement this in the future (no promises) but its not a high priority at this point.
