Fixed some typos The storage folder (data) is now defined in default installations without any quoting which is how we handle the log file location. Previously we used single quotes for storage, but the visual code addon in Home Assistant would automatically change these to double quotes, which is annoying. So our sed mathing looks for any type of quoting and replaces the default data directory with the new one without quotes.

I had to fix a few things, but the migration script works now! There will be errors if a user has used a non-default log location or storage directory. This will need to be heavily noted in the release. |

Proposed change
The new location will be backed up by a Home Assistant snapshot and is Home Assistant's preferred location for storing config files going forward.
config.yamlfile is not found in the new location; ANDconfig.yamlfile is found at the old location; THENThis process should ensure that no data is lost and should provide enough guidance to users on where their config files are located.

Checklist
I have updated and added comments about the location of the new config files in every location in documentation that I can think of.
