Description

We have enough programs not respecting XDG Base Directory Standard (https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html). Please, let Forge not be one of them.
Program data should reside either in `~/.local/share/forge` or `~/.config/forge`, but in case of Forge, first option would be ideal.

Or at least give us the option to somehow modify the path to this directory.
