Snaps do not have access to hidden folders inside the user's home directory, which causes the --record flag to result in a permission denied error. This moves the location of the screen recordings to the $SNAP_USER_COMMON directory (~/snap/ght/common/recordings) which the snap does have access to.

Fixes #253

Snaps do not have access to hidden folders inside the user's home
directory, which causes the --record flag to result in a permission
denied error. This moves the location of the screen recordings to the
$SNAP_USER_COMMON directory (~/snap/ght/common/recordings) which the
snap does have access to.
