#3677: bb-config-location should default to something intelligent

 I recently worked with someone who, for some unexplained reason, kept
 having her 'bb-config-location' option deleted, which resulted in
 bp_forums_is_installed_correctly() returning false. I'm not sure why the
 bb-config-location option keeps getting deleted - probably a plugin
 conflict (I couldn't reproduce it on a clean install). But, in any case,
 it would have continued to work even in the absence of bb-config-location
 if the default value for that option, as set in
 bp_core_get_root_options(), were something sensible: ABSPATH . 'bb-
 config.php' instead of ABSPATH. And since we do an is_file() check before
 actually loading that value into the $bp->forums object, there's no chance
 of false positives.

 Objections?
