Description
### Description:
I'm attempting to specify both a `--config-file` and `--template-file` in different directories. Both files exist, but if the template file is in a different directory, that seems to become the working directory.
Working commands:
`sam deploy --config-file samconfig.foo.toml --template-file foo-template.yaml`
`sam deploy --config-file ../../samconfig.foo.toml --template-file path/to/foo-template.yaml`
Command fails:
` sam deploy --config-file samconfig.foo.toml --template-file path/to/foo-template.yaml`
Error message: `Error: Config file samconfig.foo.toml does not exist or could not be read!`
### Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a config file in your working directory
2. Create a template file in a different directory
3. Attempt to run a `sam deploy` command specifying the locations of both
### Observed result:
```
2024-10-16 10:26:28,535 | Config file samconfig.foo.toml does not exist or could not be read!
Error: Config file samconfig.foo.toml does not exist or could not be read!
```
### Expected result:
The deploy is able advance with the proper configs. I was unable to find any info in the docs saying that specifying the `--template-file` command would change the working directory.
### Additional environment details (Ex: Windows, Mac, Amazon Linux etc)
