Please store models in the ComfyUI "models" directory #89

Description

Hello, and thank you for your work on this node — it’s really great!

We've encountered an issue where this node stores models outside of the default models directory, which introduces inconsistency across the ComfyUI ecosystem.

Here are a few reasons why aligning with the general ComfyUI model storage system would be beneficial:

  1. When reinstalling ComfyUI, nodes may be removed and reinstalled, requiring models to be re-downloaded if they aren’t stored in a common location.
  2. In some professional setups, the models folder is mapped to high-speed storage for performance reasons.
  3. Storing models inside the node’s directory prevents making nodes read-only, which is important for Docker-based deployments and other immutable setups.

We’d really appreciate it if you could consider switching to the standard models directory for better compatibility and flexibility.
