Fixed zmkfirmware#54 by adding a new system where a command can override the repo returned by Config.get_repo(). This ensures that when "zmk init" passes through to "zmk keyboard add", it works on the correct repo regardless of whether the user set the new repo as their default. Also, when initializing a repo but not setting it as the default, any "zmk ..." commands run after that point would still run on the default repo. To try to avoid any confusion caused by that, "zmk init" will now print a message at the end instructing the user to "cd <repo path>" if the new repo is not the default repo.
