Linux: Install paraview.conf to sysconfig dir instead of /usr/bin

When installing paraview 5.8 system-wide on Linux, it installs the config file paraview.conf to /usr/bin, a path reserved for executables. In particular, when building packages for distros (I build packages for openSUSE, for example), having a non-exec file in /usr/bin is usually expressly forbidden. It also causes problems like this:

:~> paraview.conf
bash: /usr/bin/paraview.conf: Permission denied

However, paraview doesn't load its plugins without paraview.conf in this specific directory. Perhaps it can be moved to the sysconfig directory, e.g., /etc/* or somewhere else within paraview's shared directories?

For the short term, so I can push along the 5.8 update to openSUSE's repositories, is there anyway one could get the plugins to autoload without paraview.conf in /usr/bin/?
