Suggestions for config path and password security #3

Hi there,
I've been using sshw recently and really like how simple it is. I'm currently putting together an AUR package for it on Arch Linux, but I ran into a couple of things:

  1. Config Path: It seems the app defaults to looking for .sshw.yml in the same directory as the binary (like /usr/bin). This doesn't really work on Linux without root. It would be much better if it prioritized ~/.sshw.yml or followed the XDG spec.
  2. Security: Storing passwords in plain text is a bit risky. Have you thought about adding some basic encryption?

If you're busy, I'm down to submit a PR to fix the config path logic. Let me know what you think!
