[Feature Request] Custom configuration file path

[dallaslu]

The default path is tabby/config.yaml, there are many other files in the same folder. This makes it difficult to sync using a web drive client such as Dropbox, Nextcloud.

Once you can customize the path, it's easy to switch configurations (may be useful in some very specific cases).

At the very least, key text files such as config.yaml can be moved to a folder. For Example: tabby/con/config.yaml.

What about adding something like an includes option? Then it'll also be easier to share the conf between Mac/Windows/Linux.

includes:
  - /my/tabby/common.yaml
  - /my/tabby/win10.yaml

What about the changes made in the tabby settings screen, are they saved to config.yaml or the include file?

• The files in includes list have lower to higher precedence (so win10.yaml would override common.yaml).
• Options in tabby/config.yaml would override includes files.
• New updated settings would only be saved to tabby/config.yaml. Users need to manually copy the options from tabby/config.yaml to includes files if they like.
• includes files cannot include other files.
