js: custom-init: use ~~/init.js instead of ~~/.init.js (dot)
mpv doesn't have other dot files in its config dir, and it also
shouldn't be "invisible".
The new name ~~/init.js now replaces ~~/.init.js
While mpv usually deprecates things before outright removing them,
in this case the old (dot) name is replaced without deprecation:
- It's a bad idea to execute hidden scripts, even if at a config dir,
and we don't want to do that for the next release cycle too.
- We warn if the old (dot) name exists and the new name doesn't,
which should be reasonably visible for affected users.
- It's likely niche enough to not cause too much pain.
If for some reason both names are needed, e.g. when using also an old
mpv versions, then the old name could be symlinked to the new one, or
simply have one line: `require("~~/init")` to load the new name, while
a new mpv version will load (only) the new name without warning.
