cloudhead 7feb3e3b10 Use "repository" consistently over "project"
We were using the two pretty interchangeably. "Project" should only be
used to refer to the repository payload. "Repository" should be used
when referring to the resource that is fetched, synced, cloned, checked
out etc.

We can specify where a repository gets cloned into on our filesystem by specifying the directory in the rad clone command:

$ rad clone rad:z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji --scope followed Developer/Radicle
✓ Seeding policy updated for rad:z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji with scope 'followed'
✓ Fetching rad:z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji from z6MknSL…StBU8Vi..
✓ Creating checkout in ./Developer/Radicle..
✓ Remote alice@z6MknSLrJoTcukLrE435hVNQT4JUhbvWLX4kUzqkEStBU8Vi added
✓ Remote-tracking branch alice@z6MknSLrJoTcukLrE435hVNQT4JUhbvWLX4kUzqkEStBU8Vi/master created for z6MknSL…StBU8Vi
✓ Repository successfully cloned under [..]/Developer/Radicle/

Run `cd [..]/Developer/Radicle` to go to the repository directory.

Note that attempting to clone into a directory that already exists, and is not empty, will fail:

$ rad clone rad:z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji --scope followed Developer/Radicle
✓ Fetching rad:z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji from z6MknSL…StBU8Vi..
✗ Error: the directory path "Developer/Radicle" already exists
