libinterimap: use directories relative to $HOME for the XDG defaults.
Previously getpwuid() was called to determine the user's home directory,
while the XDG specification explicitely mentions $HOME.
Conveniently our docs always mentioned ~/, which on POSIX-compliant
systems expands to the value of the variable HOME (and the result is
unspecified when the variable is unset). Cf. Shell and Utilities volume
of POSIX.1-2017, sec. 2.6.1:
