Use more normal pathing?

[el-tocino]

Software configs for linux tend to go into /etc. Mycroft itself already looks into /etc/mycroft/ for local configs. Mycroft is also using /opt/mycroft. Instead of hiding things in .mycroft, why not use one of those two?

my reasoning was that mycroft does that for the user config, and i was running the personal backend in the same device so it seemed to make sense

maybe the default should go into /etc but still check for a user config in ~/.mycroft ?

Worth looking in both. Also I think the config can be set with the path, which should make moving to /opt/mycroft fairly easy as well. Will try this at some point soon.
