Implement configurable STATE_DIR for state files

Move processed_message_ids.txt and last_run.txt to STATE_DIR,
configurable via .env. Install script creates ./state by default.

Changes:
- Add STATE_DIR to .env.example and config loading
- Update EmailForwarder to use os.path.join for file paths
- Add os.makedirs for state dir creation
- Update README with STATE_DIR option
