[Request]: Add option to have multiple Bottle "libraries"/directories
Tell us the problem or your need
On my machine I have a small SSD and a larger HDD for storing game data. I usually install games on the HDD because it has more space. I have a bunch of smaller programs/games that I would like to store on my SSD to take advantage of it's speed though. Currently this isn't possible with Bottles. I can change the path of all bottles, but I can't have just some of them in a different path.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be great to be able to configure multiple directories to store bottles in. This could be done in a similar way that Steam handles this. There you can configure multiple directories that serve as game libraries, with one being the default. When creating a bottle, there could be a drop down where you select the directory you want to create the bottle in with the configured default already pre-selected. Additionally, there could be an option in the settings of a bottle to move it to a different directory, though this might be considered a separate feature.
