Writing a glob by hand meant guessing what it would catch, then running retag
to find out. The new screen, on 4, puts the glob, account and tag fields on
the left and every still-untagged description on the right, sorted
alphabetically and grouped by description with an occurrence count.
Matches are marked as the glob is typed, along with a count, so the effect of
a rule is visible before it is written. Enter appends it to rules.toml via
config.AppendRule, reloads the engine from disk and retags, so the rows it
caught leave the list immediately.
Rules are appended rather than prepended, keeping the precedence of anything
already in the file. Since the preview only lists transactions no existing
rule has tagged, it reflects that precedence for free.

Running the tool from anywhere required either a --root flag or an exported
MONEY_ROOT. Read the data root from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/money/config.toml
(~/.config/money/config.toml) instead, so it can be configured once.
Resolution order is --root, then $MONEY_ROOT, then the config file, then
~/money. A leading tilde in the config file is expanded, since no shell has
done it for us, and relative paths are made absolute.
The new "money config" subcommand prints the resolved root and which rule
chose it, which is the first thing to check when the tool reads the wrong
directory.
