[Feature Request] Allow relative file paths in preference.json

[redsigma]

It would be nice if i can use paths such as below

{
  "Locale": "en_US",
  "Theme": "Default",
  "ThemeOverrides": ".\\themedark.json",
  "GitInstallPath": ".\\git\\bin\\git.exe",
  "ShellOrTerminalPath": ".\\git\\bin\\git-bash.exe"
}

Optionally It would be even better if it can also allow for environment variables

{
  "Locale": "en_US",
  "Theme": "Default",
  "ThemeOverrides": ".\\themedark.json",
  "GitInstallPath": "$GIT_PATH\\git.exe",
  "ShellOrTerminalPath": "$GIT_PATH\\git-bash.exe"
}

In fact, I do not recommend users to edit preferences.json directly. Instead, SourceGit advocates using the built-in configuration interface to select the path of the corresponding tool.

Sad to hear that. Because it means SourceGit installation cannot be fully automated when it comes to using tools like Ansible.
I think at least having only support for environment variables would be a good compromise.
