The 'XDG Base Directory Specification' should be respected on GNU/Linux systems, as crc should not assume that it is ok to use $HOME/.crc

Handling of XDG ENV vars on other operating systems should be documented. At least most of the ENV should be respected on OSX.

@goern we did think of it and since minishift/minikube also use $HOME/.<project> we went through this route instead of XDG Base Directory Specification so a user coming from these project should know where to look for files, in future, we should consider this.

In my opinion, once we have our initial releases, this will be much harder to change, so this really should be done early.
