Benchmarking non-traditional mount points #139

Description:

NixOS does not follow the FHS and filesystems are not always available to test from Kdiskmark. Is it possible to make the options more flexible rather than the limited drop-down menu. This is discussed in https://discourse.nixos.org/t/kdiskmark-question-and-benchmarking-zfs/24940 but I'm not sure I understand enough to explain fully...but your app is so useful in general it would be great to be more usable on NixOS.

Steps To Reproduce:

Can confirm, getting nothing on the dropdown.

framework/root on / type zfs (rw,relatime,xattr,posixacl,casesensitive,x-initrd.mount)
framework/root on /nix/store type zfs (ro,relatime,xattr,posixacl,casesensitive)
framework/home on /home type zfs (rw,relatime,xattr,posixacl,casesensitive)
/dev/nvme0n1p1 on /boot type vfat (rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro)

Hello! I don't quite understand why you're using a release that's almost two years old. In the current version you can choose the test directory through the file manager. Or is it not working for some reason?

Ah, sorry, it is quite unusual for nixpkgs to be this outdated. I'll see if I can submit a PR there.
