Change layout directory from data to config

* default layouts won't be installed by anymore,
  instead they will be directly loaded

* `layout-dir` is now a subdirectory of the
  `config-dir` by default, instead of the `data-dir`

  POSSIBLE BREAKING CHANGE:
  In case of having custom layouts in the previous
  `layout-dir` one can switch either the layouts to
  the new dir, or set the `layout-dir` to be the current
  `layout-dir`

* it is possible to change the location of the `layout-dir`:
  - `zellij options --layout-dir [LAYOUR_DIR]`
  - `layout_dir: [LAYOUT_DIR]`
