feature: Read config directory from GLAB_CONFIG_DIR

Kerri Miller requested to merge github/fork/kampka/global-config-env-var into trunk

Created by: kampka

Description

When working with many different gitlab instances for different projects, the global config quickly gets cluttered up with specific settings that do not clean up conveniently. On the other hand, local configs are to local, restricting the config to one repository instead of one project or instance that potentially contains many relevant repositories. This change introduces a middle ground solution via the GLAB_CONFIG_DIR environment variable. Setting this variable will allow global configuration to travel with the project instead of populating the XDG global config.
