uhd: paths: Harmonize around XDG Base Directory specification
Up until now, we completely ignore the XDG specification.
This commit does the following to change that:
- It uses XDG_DATA_HOME and XDG_CONFIG_HOME for cal and config data,
respectively.
- If config data is in ~/.uhd/uhd.conf, that is still accepted, but if
it conflicts with $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/uhd.conf, it is ignored and a
warning is displayed
- The default location for cal data is thus ${HOME}/.local/share/uhd/cal
on Unix, and %LOCALAPPDATA%\uhd\cal on Windows. This is a change in
location!
- The UHD_CONFIG_DIR environment variable was confusingly named and is
now removed. It provided an alternative location than the home
directory. The same purpose is now much better served by XDG_DATA_HOME
and XDG_CONFIG_HOME.
The specification can be found here:
