Add information about community config tool (#2914)

Browse Source 
I never got a response in the Discord server about PRing this so I
figured I would open the PR anyways.

I thought it might be a good idea to add this info into the README for
all the testers currently using Ghostty. I also think it might be a good
idea to have this in place before Ghostty goes public to potentially cut
down on the number of incoming requests for help and support regarding
configuration files and the inevitable duplicate requests for GUI
settings.

If this isn't something you'd like to add, feel free to close this. If
you want it adjusted in some way, let me know!
