Description

Similar to

* #1657

in order to save archival space, it is proposed that the XRC data be stored in a separate folder hierarchy
e.g.
`/dls/i03/data/2026/mx41060-14/xraycentring` (TBC)
so that it can be discarded after a set period of time.

This should be something that can be specified and configurable.

## Acceptance Criteria
- XRC data is stored in a separate directory

Research direction

Start by comparing the related issue #1657 and locating the existing Hyperion XRC data-writing path. Trace how the output directory is selected and where configuration is defined; done means XRC data is written under a separate configurable directory hierarchy such as the proposed xraycentring folder.
