[FIX] mail: don't redirect to user's own partner form view

Clicking on the author of a message opens a DM with the corresponding user if
there is one, and opens the corresponding partner's form view otherwise.

When the author is the current user, obviously we don't want to open a DM with
ourself, but we probably don't want to open our partner form view either, which
was exactly the behavior before this rev.
