we didn't check before, raising a critical exception.
now we create ~/.config/exo on linux systems before touching config.toml.

this wasn't caught before since everything lives in ~/.exo on macos, and we no longer write the keypair to CONFIG_HOME, so config.toml has to do init work it avoided before.
