[BUG] Completions can't install on Apple Silicon Macs (or when /usr/local/share/zsh/ doesn't exist) #459

Description

@willdhorn

Describe the bug
CLI completions fail to install when /usr/local/share/zsh/ doesn't exist, which it won't on Apple Silicon macs because /usr is protected.

To Reproduce

  1. make sure /usr/local/share/zsh/ doesn't exist
  2. run doppler completion install
  3. See error

Expected behavior
Either:

  • it adds the file(s) to a different directory and adds it to $FPATH
  • the cli supports a flag to specify a directory to place the completions and adds that directory to $FPATH

Desktop (please complete the following information):
macOS Ventura 13.6.1 (M2 MacBook Pro)

CLI Version:
v3.68.0

Additional Context
/usr requires root permissions on Apple Silicon Macs. This is why homebrew completions are installed in /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions on x86 macs and /opt/homebrew/share/zsh/site-functions on ARM machines.
