chg: respect XDG_RUNTIME_DIR

$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR [1] is a better place for user daemons. Let's use it and
fallback to $TMPDIR.

After this patch, chg will try socket paths in the following order:

  1. $CHGSOCKNAME
  2. $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/chg/server
  3. ${TMPDIR:-tmp}/chg$UID/server

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
