Describe the bug
Very minor: When installing the quick start (komorebic quickstart) with a custom config path set via:
$Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME = 'D:\XDG\config\komorebi', it reports:
Example ~/komorebi.json, ~/.config/whkdrc and latest ~/applications.yaml files downloaded

whkdrc still lands in ~/.config/whkdrc, rather than being redirected to the dir set by $Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME (the other two files land there are, as expected). I get there seperate apps, but just thinking about in the context of installing whkd with komorebi using a custom config dir.....
applications.yaml lands in the correct path, but komorebi.json is still pointed at the default path, i.e.
"app_specific_configuration_path": "$Env:USERPROFILE/applications.yaml"
not the custom path:
"app_specific_configuration_path": "D:\XDG\config\komorebi\applications.yaml"
komorebic fetch-asc does it's thing correctly and reports the custom path correctly as defined by $Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME

To Reproduce

Run: komorebic quickstart
Check config dirs and komorebi.json

Expected behavior

Expected to see 'whkdrc' end up in either $Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME/.config/whkdrc or just $Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME/whkdrc
I feel that would be neater than splitting them using the default ~/.config/ even when $Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME has been set? (just so it all lands in one place)
expected komorebi.json to default to automatically be configured to use:
"app_specific_configuration_path": $Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME/applications.yaml'
rather than:
"app_specific_configuration_path": "$Env:USERPROFILE/applications.yaml"
(similarly, perhaps komorebic fetch-asc should report $Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME/applications.yaml rather than the absolute path....or that might just confuse most users?)

There is separate WHKD_CONFIG_HOME for whkdrc which should be respected if it is set in the environment.

As for komorebi.json and the interaction with KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME, because having URL strings that point to GitHub would trigger various anti virus tools with false positives we started embedding the static file used in the docs into the komorebic binary.

For this I think we might be able to do a check to see if the env var is defined when the quickstart command is run and do a last minute string replacement 🤔

Okay, opening a ticket for WHKD_CONFIG_HOME as it appears it isn't being respected? - https://github.com/LGUG2Z/whkd/issues/41

Fair call on that, didn't think of the AV bit.

Make some updates to the path resolution for the config command

If KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME is set, the Env:USERPROFILE string will be replaced with Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME
If WHKD_CONFIG_HOME is set, the sample whkdrc file will be created there
