Description

### I confirm that...

- [X] I have searched the [issue tracker](https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs/issues), [documentation](https://docs.doomemacs.org), [FAQ](https://docs.doomemacs.org/-/faq), [Discourse](https://discourse.doomemacs.org), and [Google](https://google.com), in case this issue has already been reported/resolved.

- [X] I have read "[How to Debug Issues](https://doomemacs.org/d/how2debug)", and will use it to provide as much information about this issue as possible.

- [X] The issue can be reproduced on the **latest** available commit of Doom.

- [X] The issue can be reproduced on a stable release of Emacs, such as 27 or 28. *(Doom does not support development builds like 29+ or any version ending in .50 or .9x)*

### Expected behavior

No issues, no flycheck errors.

### Current behavior

I cloned my doomemacs as `~/.emacs.d.doomemacs` to don't mixup with my main config. Then installed, added some stuff to ~/.doom.d and ran `doom sync`

When I try to edit any file from `~/.doom.d/` I got the flycheck error:

```
Failed to load Doom: Profile init file hasn’t been generated. Did you forgot to run ’doom sync’?
```

However, if I install as `~/.emacs.d` this issue doesn't happen`.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Install doomemacs in a non-default path (ex.: `~/.emacs.d.doomemacs`)
2. Run `doom sync`
3. Open any `~/.doom.d/` file, for instance config.el
