Keep the files in N1MM's folders

The folders under the user's own directory are N1MM's now, with N1MM's names,
read out of N1MMLibrary.dll: Databases, SupportFiles, UserDefinedContests,
FunctionKeyMessages, CallHistoryFiles, ExportFiles, GoalFiles, LettersFiles,
QsoRecording, SkinsAndLayouts, SystemFiles, TransactionLogFiles, Diagnostics
and Wav. A station that runs both programs keeps its files in one shape.

An operator's recordings go in Wav/<his callsign>, which is where N1MM plays
them from, and the folder is made when he takes the radio. Cabrillo and ADIF
start in ExportFiles, call history files in CallHistoryFiles, and the .mc
function key files in FunctionKeyMessages.

N1MM's three *DDL folders and its Piper folders are left out: they hold the
migrations for N1MM's own admin databases and the program it speaks with.

### Where the files live
The program keeps its files under `Documents\Nonemm` on Windows and
`~/.config/nonemm` elsewhere. The folders inside are N1MM's, with N1MM's names,
so a station that runs both keeps its files in the same shape:
| Folder | What goes in it |
|---|---|
| `Databases` | the `.s3db` log files |
| `SupportFiles` | `wl_cty.dat`, `MASTER.SCP`, the downloaded cluster list |
| `UserDefinedContests` | `.udc` files |
| `FunctionKeyMessages` | `.mc` function key files, where import and export start |
| `CallHistoryFiles` | the call history files published before a contest |
| `ExportFiles` | Cabrillo and ADIF, in and out |
| `Wav` | the voice keyer's recordings, one folder per operator: `Wav/OM3KFF/Cq.wav` |
| `GoalFiles`, `LettersFiles`, `QsoRecording`, `SkinsAndLayouts`, `SystemFiles`, `TransactionLogFiles`, `Diagnostics` | N1MM's, and made for the same reason: a station that keeps files in them does not lose them moving between the two programs. Nothing here writes to them yet |
`settings.json` sits in the root. N1MM's three `*DDL` folders and its `Piper`
folders are not made: those hold the migrations for N1MM's own admin databases
