Feature: Reflect Appwrite Install Location in Management Console and Make Environs Directly Accessible

Feature description

Please implement a way for the management console to reflect the location where Appwrite was installed into by the docker commands. Better yet, it would be ideal, if the user could modify the env variables from within the management console itself, so they won't ever need to directly access the .env file.

Pitch

If the user forgets the location where they initialized Appwrite into, there is no way for them to easily access the .env file to configure Appwrite, unless they use some obscure docker commands which the majority of devs have no clue about. The user should not plow through pages of documentation to help them find out where they installed Appwrite nor how could they modify the environment variables.
