Subject: fix(appearance): preserve the raw cache path on settings save

appConfText() hardcoded path = ~/.config/hyprsunset-qt/sun.json, so any
saveSettings() -- from save() or detect() -- silently reset a user-customized
cache path while fetchSun() kept writing to the parsed location. Mirror
sunset-qt's settings.py: hold the raw unexpanded string in cachePathRaw for
serialization and derive the expanded cachePath for file access, so a no-op
save is byte-identical and the two stay consistent.
