CLIEngine cwd option

[sindresorhus]

It would be useful to be able to set the cwd (current working directory) of where ESLint works from. My specific use-case is that I use ESLint in an Atom Editor plugin where process.cwd() === '/'.

Thanks for the issue! If you're reporting a bug, please be sure to include:

1. The version of ESLint you are using (run eslint -v)
2. What you did (the source code and ESLint configuration)
3. The actual ESLint output complete with numbers
4. What you expected to happen instead

Agree, this has been in the back of my mind for a while. Do you want to submit a pull request?

I don't have the time right now as I'm traveling, but I will eventually if no one else steps in.

It's not even as simple as that, it should go in the same directory as the package.json file/node_modules dir, otherwise the module is not found strangely enough.
