vmfloaty dotfile

If you do not wish to continuely specify various config options with the cli, you can have a dotfile in your home directory for some defaults. For example:

#file at /Users/me/.vmpooler.yml
url: 'http://vmpooler.mycompany.net'
user: 'brian'

Now vmfloaty will use those config files if no flag was specified.
