The reason why this doesn't happen is the default
```
save_config_on_file_change=TRUE
```
When disabled, the problem happens. I.e.:
1. With project closed, open some files.
2. Restart Geany to make sure the files from (1) are stored in the default 
session
3. Close all of the open files
4. Open a project
5. Close the project
6. The open files from (1) are restored but, instead, there should be no open 
files because of (3)

So this patch is trading one problem for another, but IMO still worth it 
because the second problem is much more rare.

Even though I suggested passing some boolean in the description above, this 
affects several session management functions at various places and makes the 
already complicated code even worse so I'd prefer the slightly buggy approach 
from this PR.

In the future, I think the best solution would be rewriting the session 
management from scratch, moving it to a separate file and making sure its API 
would abstract-away the callers from details of what state the session is in.
