Please use vscode's config folder for .cmdline_history

Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST? (choose one): Enhancement

• Extension (VsCodeVim) version: 0.14.1
• VSCode version: 1.24.1
• OS version: Arch Linux

vscode-vim has recently started creating a ~/.VSCodeVim folder in $HOME, which pollutes the home dir 😦

There already is a config folder for vscode in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/Code. Can you move that folder there instead please?

Please don’t use ~/.vscode either as it doesn’t respect XDG. The vscode config is split right now and the “correct” one is in the XDG dir. Also see: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/3884

Ok I decided to use a library for now, just tested it on 3 platforms with these results:

Windows:
C:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Local\VSCodeVim\VSCodeVim\Cache

MacOS:
/Users/xxxxx/Library/Caches/VSCodeVim

Linux:
/home/xxxxx/.cache/VSCodeVim

This issue will be closed and I will push a release. Please let me know if something still doesn’t seem right once you start using the new release!
