When editing multiple sites using BSSG_LCONF it is easy to forget which
path one is currently working with and frustrating to need to type exact
paths when editing files. E.g:

 export BSSF_LCONF=/a/very/deep/path/to/site/a
 bssg.sh page
 ...
 bssg.sh edit '/a/very/deep/path/to/site/a/pages/page-1.md'

It is easier, more intutive, and friendlier to be able to do:

 bssg.sh edit '$PAGES_DIR/pages/page-1.md'

Note the single quotes to prevent the interactive shell from doing
parameter expansion.

Although I'm not deeply familiar with the codebase as yet I examined sub commands and tested and couldn't detect any change in behaviour - aside from the intended that is.
