Since we're going to use /home/gitlab as the base directory for all
things gitlab-runner, I would suggest we store the gitlab-runner
binary itself inside that directory too, and since we're pointing
the application to the configuration file explicitly we could
shorten that a bit and use /home/gitlab/config.toml as the path.

The only setting that concerns me a bit is --working-directory: is
that the base directory for gitlab-runner's operation, or is that
the one where it will store source code and temporary files? Because
in the latter case I would feel more comfortable if we used a
subdirectory of /home/gitlab, rather than the home directory itself,
as path.
