Don't hardcode the path to config #14

Currently the path to the config file is hardcoded as config.ini. This is causing problems if you want to run bridge.pyusing eg a systemd service. The config could for example be

at /etc/cec-mqtt-bridge or similar
configurable as a parameter
configurable in one of first lines of the script
at least be hardcoded to /opt/cec-mqtt-bridge/config.ini

This would be very helpful.

It should use the working directory. If you set those in your service definition, it should look there.

Thanks for the hint, I didn't know this option.

Also thanks a lot for the swift answer and this great project!
