Documentation / ease of use for default configuration file

It feels weird that I should need to implement a feature with my CLI application to display the path to the configuration file, when all I need to know is the default location for that file to delete it locally for testing. I get it, help oneself, but you could save a lot of people a lot of searching / unnecessary code by just making a small table in the readme for the main OSes supported in Rust (windows, macos, linux, wasm?).

Note this isn't a judgement on the quality of this project, so please realize I just want it to be more accessible to folks newer to using Rust for CLI development.

This is a fair callout, I'll look into creating a section on that probably linking to https://github.com/dirs-dev/directories-rs#basedirs as the source of truth as well.

Thanks!
