Several pieces of the app that instantiace WaycastData use a hard coded path "waycast.db".

We need to use waycast_config::data_dir() to put it on the XDG data path in production.

Realistically this is an architecture issue that would be solved by making a central waycast facade that holds the configured underlying pieces like the database and scanners.

However, that might be out of scope for the initial v2 release, so we can come up with an intermediate solution for now.
