@TheButlah let's resolve the conflicts and merge

IMO to go even further, I think `directory` should point to the location of the west top dir not: > .west is created next to "directory" but > .west is...

@pdgendt tox fails with errors even on `main` on my machine 😞

here is the manifest ``` manifest: remotes: - name: worldcoin url-base: [email protected]:worldcoin defaults: remote: worldcoin group-filter: [+internal] projects: - name: orb-firmware revision: ... import: name-allowlist: - zephyr - ... path:...

the problem is that is creates the `.west` directory inside `orb/` I want it to be at the top directory above ``` root@73b74a36d5cc:/home/ubuntu/firmware# west init -l orb/private --mf west.yml ===...

yes I expect more discussion and refactoring... because it's not clear how to use `directory` passed with `-l` IMO https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/west/pull/775
