Prompt non-codespace users for storage path

Offer non-codespace users the option to configure their storage folder for skeleton packs.

Suggested here:
#2310 (comment)

At the moment we're choosing to create our skeleton packs in the first
folder in the workspace.

This is fine for the codespace template because we can control the
folder structure in that repo.

For users outside of this we'd like to offer them the option to choose
where to save their skeleton packs.
