Config path not included when using deno install --config but added a default name instead

From #17834 (comment)

Version: Deno 1.46.3

Let suppose my project name is cat, when running the following script:

deno install -g -c /some/absolute/path/to/deno.json mod.ts

The generated installed file looks like this:

#!/bin/sh
# generated by deno install
exec deno run --config /home/my_user/.deno/bin/.cat.deno.json 'file:///path/to/my/project/mod.ts' "$@"

Basically the path provided in --config/-c is not taken into account. Is this expected? Should I make a copy of my deno.json into the deno bin folder named .cat.deno.json?

Thanks

Hello , Can I work on this issue

Gentle bump on this 🙏🏼

Currently setting --config works fine for local installed modules. It just copies the Deno config file into the install directory with a dot at the beginning: .{module-name}.deno.json.
