Add "-settingsDir" argument for overriding default settings path
Currently the settings directory could be:

1. Notepad++ installation dir if doLocalConf.xml is present.
2. %APPDATA%\Notepad++ if doLocalConf.xml is absent.
3. The path defined in \cloud\choice in Notepad++ installation or in %APPDATA%\Notepad++, it depends on the existence of doLocalConf.xml.

In this PR "-settingsDir" argument is added for overriding above settings paths:
4. Overrided by command line argument -settingsDir="E:\my NppSettings\" : All the above configurations will be ignored, Notepad++ will load (and write) config.xml and the other configuration xml files from (into) "E:\my NppSettings\". Note that double quotes is not necessary if there's no white space in the given path.

The priorities are: 1. -settingsDir 2. Cloud 3. %APPDATA%\Notepad++ or Notepad++ installation dir.
If the given path "E:\my NppSettings\" is not a valid directory (it doesn't exist or it's a file), this argument is ignored and the settings dir will fall back to Cloud (or to %APPDATA%\Notepad++ or Notepad++ installation dir, if settings on Cloud is not defined).
