Description

Sometimes we have troubles with UnauthorizedAccessException (we don't have access to the current directories) or long paths. I think, it would be great to provide a nice API which allows to customzie BenchmarkDotNet working directory (which will contain all the generated files and folders).

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the existing path resolution logic in BenchmarkDotNet's artifact and job folders. Identify where paths are hardcoded and propose a configuration API (e.g., via settings class or environment variables) to allow customization.
