Please ship example config file separately from source #25

e.g. /etc/clamz.config, and have clamz read it.

This means two instant advantages:

1. clamz has site-wide config.

2. Users have a visible example. If clamz is installed from a distro (e.g. 
Ubuntu in my case), then there's no source, so no example config file (except 
buried in the binary, with no way to get it out).

As a small aside, an example of putting a shell variable in the config file 
(like ${HOME}), would be nice, as it's not clear from the default settings that 
these use the same syntax as clamz's own format variables.

It is completely unclear how one is supposed to use the config file:
$HOME/.clamz/config
General configuration file, providing default settings for the  --output,  
--forbid-chars,  --allow-uppercase  and --utf8-filenames options.

Do I put:
--output=$HOME/Music/${artist_album}/${album}
or
output=/home/username/Music/${artist_album}/${album}
?
and how, exactly, do I get Firefox to actually use clamz? The link in the man 
page doesn't seem to make Firefox start using clamz at all.
