mautrix-telegram: patch away alembic dependency
`alembic`[1] is a database migration tool which is invoked from the CLI when installing the telegram bridge, but never needed during the runtime. The reason why `alembic` is required here is to ensure that it exists in the Python environment when deploying the bridge. However `alembic` requires `mautrix-telegram` in its environment to create a database schema from the Python models. Such a dependency relation may be possible with tools like virtualenv, however it'll result in an infinite recursion at evaluation time in Nix. With this patch, `mautrix-telegram` doesn't depend on `alembic` anymore and provides a patched alembic (`pkgs.mautrix-telegram.alembic`) which has `mautrix-telegram` in its path.
