FIX change location of filestore during the install #433

Closed TomDLT closed 2 years ago

Fixes #335 #360

In some machines (macos, colab), the install would put the filestore in a location of the form build/bdist.*/wheel/pycortex-*.data/data/share/pycortex/db, which seems to be deleted after the install. This PR fixes this issue by changing the default location.

Tested on my machine:

before: .../tomdlt/miniconda3/envs/py37/share/pycortex/db
after: .../tomdlt/miniconda3/envs/py37/share/pycortex/db

Tested on my machine, installing with --user:

before: .../tomdlt/.local/share/pycortex/db
after: .../tomdlt/.local/share/pycortex/db

Tested on Colab:

before: build/bdist.linux-x86_64/wheel/pycortex-1.2.3.data/data/share/pycortex/db
after: /usr/share/pycortex/db
