Write Niri config to arbitrary location #2703

Description

@brendon-r

Feature Description

Write the Niri configs that currently go to ~/.config/niri/dms to a path that the user can specify.

Use Case

I'd like to be able to specify where DMS places it's Niri configs so that I can version control them along with my NixOS config.

Currently, the configs are stored in ~/.config/niri/dms, which makes sense but if they could be written to an arbitrary path, I could version control them along with the rest of my Nix config. Niri's config 'include' allows setting relative or absolute paths so the path there could just be updated to point to this user-specified path instead of the path in .config.
