Subject: [PATCH] Add -userFileDirectory option

This volatile option is initialized from 'installDir'. It is
primarily intended for configuration of WinBoard through its master
settings file, and specifies an alternative place to create saveGameFile
or look for other user files, in stead of looking in the installDir.
