Default location of dump file

[fhs]

Currently, we're using $HOME/edwood.dump, which is not very portable. We can use os.UserHomeDir (added in Go 1.12) but I think it'll be better to eventually use os.UserConfigDir, which will be in Go 1.13.

Why configured instead of in the directory from which edwood was opened? I keep being surprised when my dump file winds up global instead of where I rooted my session from.

Current directory may not be writable? I recently broke the -l flag, so you may be experiencing that. I'll send a fix shortly.

I actually wrap my acme/edwood invocations to manage my dump files per project I work on. And my dump files always include "Dump dumpfilename" in the main tag, just to make it easy to save correctly. I could avoid that dance if the dump file was local to the directory I launched in, or re-dumped to the same dump file as named in -l Paul

re-dumped to the same dump file as named in -l

I'm in favor of this. Most of the time you probably want to dump to the same file you loaded from. The -l flag behavior should be changed from "do initial load from this dump file" to "change default dump file to this".
