Fix lookup issues with inputs.d fragment yml (#840)

* Fix lookup issues with inputs.d fragment yml The Elastic Agent was looking next to the binary for the `inputs.d` folder instead it should look up into the `Home` folder where the Elastic Agent symlink is located. Fixes: #663 * Changelog * Fix input.d path, tie to the agent Config() directory * Update CHANGELOG to reflect that the agent configuration directory is used to locate the inputs.d directory Co-authored-by: Aleksandr Maus <aleksandr.maus@elastic.co>
