Init should be called by an app entrypoint as soon as it can to configure where the unique seed will be stored. dir is the directory where we will read and store alloy_seed.json If left empty it will default to $APPDATA or /tmp A unique Alloy seed will be generated when this method is first called, and reused for the lifetime of this Alloy instance.
