Improve steam path/exe configuration #24

@coldfix

Description

@coldfix

Follow up on #18, #19, #23, missing features from current solution:

  • document command line options in README.rst
  • add support for reading settings from $XDG_CACHE_HOME/[...], yaml/json/cfg/toml/vdg?
  • if neither command line options nor config file settings for steam path/exe are given, fallback to previously used settings (store in $XDG_CACHE_HOME or $XDG_DATA_HOME or $XDG_STATE_HOME?)
  • where is the flatpack binary com.valvesoftware.Steam installed? If it's not on PATH, we may have to change find_exe accordingly
  • generalle improve or simplify autodetection(?)
  • integrate path selection into UI
  • allow user to configure multiple presets (default, native, flatpack, home1, home2, ...) and add some sort of dropdown or radio button in the UI to select which one to use
  • move all acolyte related files out of the steam path and into the XDG paths (config/data/cache/runtime/state)
