Support making relative paths in config, relative to the config file instead of the current dir of spawning process

will it still support full paths or does this force the paths to be relative?

This is only about how to evaluate relative paths. Full/absolute paths would always be evaluated as such.

We could also offer options either from the command line and/or in the config file to tell it how to interpret relative paths.

Some thing like:

pathsRelativeTo: config|binary|env

where binary would be the ziti binary being run, config is the config file directory and env is whatever the default is.

A better approach would be to inject the config dir and the executable dir into the environment. Then we could use the env support.

So define zitiConfigDir and zitiBinDir. Then you could do things like:

identity:
  cert: ${zitiConfigDir}/certs/server.cert
