Add root command to open depository with $EDITOR

- Implement openDepository function in cmd/root.go to open the depository directory in $EDITOR
- Falls back to vi if $EDITOR is not set
- Update README.md with new usage section documenting bare 'jade' command
- Include config.go changes that move config location to depository/.jade/

 ## Usage
 
+### Open Depository
+
+```bash
+# Open the depository directory in your $EDITOR
+jade
+
+# This opens ~/jade-depository (or your configured path) in your editor
+# Works great with neovim, vim, or any editor that supports directory opening
+```

 ## Configuration
 
-Configuration is stored in `~/.config/jade/config.yml` (by default).
+Configuration is stored in `<depo_path>/.jade/config.yml` and is created automatically when you first run jade.
 
 Example config:
 ```yaml
 depo_path: /home/user/jade-depository
-config_path: /home/user/.config/jade
 tag_prefix: "+"
 ```
 
 You can override these with flags:
 - `--depo`: Depository path
-- `--config`: Config directory path
+- `--config`: Config file path (if you need to override the default location)
