Establish a canonical .dandi folder for all Dandisets and soft-transition dandiset.yaml to reside there
Rationale: no one should be human-editing the file anyway (not even that useful to read directly TBH) and upload does not accept direct modifications from it
Key problem: as we transition to more and more BIDS, we currently require .bidsignore to include dandiset.yaml otherwise, which gets to be quite annoying (though automated tools like nwb2bids do it automatically)
Future: there are also other .dandi contents we may also want to include, such as automatic client-side records from validation (for comparison to server versions)
cc @kabilar should appreciate this I think
