Addon folder structure changed - config folder not present in new HAOS-installation

[staanla]

As documented here just 3 months ago, it seems like the addon-config-mounting-map has recently changed. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the correct commit changing the actual logic.

As a consequence, there seems to be no more "config" folder in newer installations of HAOS:

# pwd
/mnt/data/supervisor
# ls
addon_configs       config.json         mounts
addons              dns                 multicast.json
addons.json         dns.json            observer.json
apparmor            emergency           services.json
audio               homeassistant       share
audio.json          homeassistant.json  ssl
backup              ingress.json        tmp
cli.json            media               updater.json

Instead, it is recommended to mount "addon_configs". For now I was able to work around this using the share folder and adjusting the addon configuration to search in /share/mqtt-io/config.yml. This could either be reflected as a preferred solution in the corresponding Documentation or probably better yet changed in the add-on config. I'm sorry there's no direct PR here, if I get around to it after solving the problem at hand I'd be happy to contribute.

Thanks for your work. I'll be happy to provide more info if necessary.

The path is relevant to the container, not the filesystem on disk. The default location on disk is within the addons/data folder which hasn't changed.
