Allow option to generate template to scratch buffer instead of editing ftplugin

[comfortablynick]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I do not have my vim/nvim files under ~/.vim, so the current command creates a file in the wrong place.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like the template to be opened in a scratch buffer. I don't like the idea of a plugin editing my ftplugin files. Failing that, I would at least like to be able to customize the path.

Hi,

where do you keep your vim files then if it's not in ~/.vim? And what would be the reason for you to not use ~/.vim or ~/.nvim?

[comfortablynick]

I primarily use nvim; mine are located at ~/.config/nvim. That works well for me because most of my ~/.config folder is in my dotfiles repo.

What about just adding a symlink ln -s ~/.config/nvim ~/.nvim? This would fix your problem, right?

[comfortablynick]

Obviously I could; I guess it would be nice if DoGe could load the template in a scratch buffer and not try to edit my ftplugin files. I can't think of any other plugins that do this.

If you're interested I can send a PR with an option for it, if not feel free to close.

Actually, there's no reason to write it indeed. I only need to remove the write command and remove that is pre-created the directory path. I think that'd be okay to support. Then you can choose to save it differently, but by default we keep the current path as a suggestion when vim-doge presents you with the new template.

Pushed to master. Can you test it and let me know? If approved I'll do a new release.

Thanks, great solution! Works fine when I try it.
