Image relative path is relative to root folder that you open, not the file.

Description

Image relative path is relative to the root folder that you open, not the file.

• Can you reproduce the issue?

Steps to reproduce

1. In preferences → image, I set "Prefer relative assets folder" to "On", and Relative image folder name to ..
2. Let's say I have a project folder at /project, and I open that folder in Mark Text.
3. I then edit a file at /project/some_folder/index.md
4. I paste an image into it, and the image is copied to /project/image.jpg instead of /project/some_folder/image.jpg.

Expected behavior:

When setting relative image folder, it should be relative to the markdown file itself (Typora does that), not the project root folder.

Versions

• MarkText version: 0.16.3
• Operating system: macOS 10.14

I saw in #2826 we added the ${filename} variable, can we add ${currentFilePath} and ${projectRootPath}? That will easily solve this issue.

That's a good point and we should save the image relative to the opened file when a variable is used. This issue only occures if you opened a folder because all images are saved relative to the project root.
