paru Update README.md

Document how to override the default configurations by using ~/.config/paru/paru.conf

Theres already a man page for the config file. I expect users to know how a config files generally work as well.

Plus I don't expect most users to come to this page to install paru as they'd get it through package management.

I agree, the man pages already defines how the paru.conf file is expected to be found and used

The missing point for me was: did not know that paru was using a config file!

Would it make sense to add a note about it (for the distracted users like me)? wdyt?

The mention of the config fine is mentioned in the main man page. If people don't check that I doubt an online readme will help.

Fair enough, even if I strongly suggest to have a mention online: this would be the first place to know the features offered by the tool (before installing).

I noticed that other tools (https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/blob/master/GUIDE.md#configuration-file) mentions that on the online documentation. While rg does not provide a manpage for their ripgreprc configuration tho

If you just want the config file locations mentioned I think that would make sense.
