Description

We introduced stagingDir in https://github.com/rokucommunity/brighterscript/pull/706 but didn't actually do any forward-mapping to convert the old to the new...so stuff breaks. We need to properly handle copying stagingFolderPath into stagingDir if stagingDir isn't specified. Probably just do this in the util function that builds the bsconfigs.

Research direction

Start with the util function that builds the bsconfigs and review the stagingDir introduction in pull request #706. Trace how stagingFolderPath and stagingDir are read, then make the fallback behavior use stagingFolderPath when stagingDir is not specified. Done means existing configurations using stagingFolderPath continue to work without breaking stagingDir.
