Support rootless install

[jab]

What problem are you trying to solve?

I just tried installing devbox for the first time, and I have to use a shared Linux server at work where I don't have sudo. The very first thing the install script does is ask...

Install devbox to /usr/local/bin (requires sudo)? [Y/n]

and if you have to answer 'no', it aborts the installation.

Note that I was already able to install Nix in this environment using the https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Nix_Installation_Guide#Installing_without_root_permissions instructions so all I need is to be able to install devbox into a directory I have write access to.

What solution would you like?

Any solution that allows users without root to install devbox, e.g. into their ~/.local/bin directory.

Alternatives you've considered

@mikeland73 et al., is this an easy ask? I'm thinking of giving a demo of devbox to colleagues (to gauge interest in potential adoption as part of our tech platform), but first would need to address this.

You can try downloading the install script and editing it:

curl --silent --show-error --fail --location --output /tmp/devbox_install "https://get.jetify.com/devbox"
# edit /tmp/devbox_install
# change the line INSTALL_DIR="/usr/local/bin"
# remove sudo things
chmod u+x /tmp/devbox_install
/tmp/devbox_install
