Keep module config and layouts in a per-machine data directory

Browse Source 
Connection settings, API keys, enabled flags and named layouts were written
to config/ inside the checkout, so a re-clone or reset from main started the
server with nothing configured. They now live in a data directory outside
the app folder:

  Windows  %APPDATA%\ProdDash
  macOS    ~/Library/Application Support/ProdDash
  other    $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/proddash, else ~/.config/proddash

PRODDASH_DATA_DIR overrides the location (a relative path resolves against
the app folder, so "config" restores the old spot). The first start after
upgrading copies an existing config/modules.json and config/layouts/ into
the data directory, so nothing has to be re-entered. If the directory cannot
be created or written, the server warns and falls back to config/ rather
than refusing to start. A proddash.json in the data directory overrides the
checked-in defaults (port, adminPasscode).

The startup banner prints the directory in use, /api/admin/state exposes it,
and the admin page shows it under the Modules heading. Admin config and
layout writes that fail on disk now report the path instead of a generic
server error. README, MODULE-GUIDE and CLAUDE.md updated.
