hide `chob` config folder

Having chob config folder in Home, I don't think is a good practice.
I suggest using it as .chob or move it to .config/chob.

Fix slow connection to snapcraft.

Index the snapcraft api so we don't need connect to it every time.

Report app versions in the output

example output:

chob vlc --enableExperiementalFeatures

10 processes

Hi!
Looking at htop I see there are 10 processes opened for chob-linux. I did just a test by searching for vlc.
Is this a normal behavior?

Which feature should i adopt in to the stable?

So right now we have two different features that you can enable with arguments. So which on of them(or maybe both) that you want to use it without adding any extra arguments.

Here is the features im talking about:

Getting errors because of old configs

With the new release, I think you should mention that the old ~/chob folder should be deleted.

$ chob vlc
⚡ Your cache will now be enabled.
Searching for vlc in application repos..

EDIT: I use chob with alias alias chob='chob --enableCache'

Flatpak repo's

Would love to be possible to check multiple Flatpak repos.

For example:
