Allow users to set the current working directory via command line flag
Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve
When copilot is invoked, the current working directory is where it starts until the user uses the /cwd slash command. This requires users and automation to change directory before invoking copilot.
Proposed solution
One common convention with CLIs is allowing users to provide a flag to change the cwd context. For example, git -C allows users to run commands outside of a local repository or unzip -d allows users to expand archives into a specific directory. Otherwise, users will need to do this 2 step process or some clever shell tricks like (cd /path/to/new/cwd && copilot).
