Make it easier for devs to run simultaneous clients #2531

Right now getting Quiet running from source is super easy, but you need to know about DATA_DIR="somedir" to run two clients side by side otherwise you hit an error and get stuck. External devs get stuck this way.

Let's automate the creation of another data folder (perhaps sequentially named) when dev Quiet is already running so that developers can easily start as many as they want.
