Fix: Make CUSTOM_TEMPLATES_DIR configurable again (#1725)

## Summary

Resolves #1484 where CUSTOM_TEMPLATES_DIR configuration was being
ignored.

The setting was previously removed from ServerConfig and hardcoded as a
constant, preventing users from customizing the templates directory
location.

## Changes

- Added CUSTOM_TEMPLATES_DIR field to StorageConfig in common.py
- Updated settings.py to use STORAGE_CONFIG.CUSTOM_TEMPLATES_DIR
- Updated paths.py to use configurable value in version output

## Usage

Users can now configure the custom templates directory via:
- ArchiveBox.conf: `CUSTOM_TEMPLATES_DIR = ./custom_templates`
- Environment variable: `export CUSTOM_TEMPLATES_DIR=/path/to/templates`
- Defaults to DATA_DIR/user_templates if not configured
