Mod configs can go where the game reads them

Mods that ship a config get a .cfg file written for them, and Trove reads those back from its own AppData folder. That location is now a setting: Settings → Directories → Mod Config Folder.

It matters most under Steam Play / Proton, where the game's AppData lives inside the Wine prefix. Point the setting at …/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/Trove/ModCfgs and mod settings finally reach the game; leave it empty on Linux and the app skips writing configs entirely, because the default folder there is the app's own and Trove never looks in it. Windows keeps %APPDATA%/Trove/ModCfgs as before.

The change applies immediately — saving re-checks your installed mods and writes their configs to the new folder, no restart needed.
